Statement by Sonia L’Heureux, Parliamentary Librarian

I welcome the appointment of Jean-Denis Fréchette as Parliamentary Budget Officer. Mr. Fréchette brings a strong understanding of the work of parliamentarians and the support they expect in addressing economic and fiscal matters considered by Parliament. I look forward to working with Mr. Fréchette in ensuring that parliamentarians receive the support they expect, as per the legislative requirements of the Parliament of Canada Act.
