On a point of order raised by the member for Beaches-Woodbine (Ms Lankin), the Speaker recessed the House for 10 minutes.

On his return, the Speaker delivered the following ruling:-

We are faced with a situation that is fairly unique. I must decide whether or not what we are dealing with today is a Routine Motion. The Standing Orders say that a motion that "changes committee membership" is a Routine Motion. Our practice has clearly been that routine motions of this nature have been simple substitution motions. In my view the motion before us seeks to do more than this, it is a motion that changes the number of members and adds the participation of an Independent member. I find therefore that this motion does not fit within the definition of Routine and will require notice.

ORDERS OF THE DAY

ORDRE DU JOUR

Mr Johnson (Don Mills) moved,

M. Johnson (Don Mills) propose,
