ORDERS OF THE DAY			ORDRE DU JOUR
On a point of order being raised, the Acting Speaker (Mr. Johnson) recessed the House for 15 minutes.
Upon his return, the Acting Speaker delivered the following ruling:-
I have carefully reviewed the Standing Orders respecting time allocation. The only restriction placed upon such motions respecting how much time can be allocated to each stage is that which stipulates that a time allocation motion cannot be moved until there have been at least 3 Sessional days of second reading debate. This requirement has been met with respect to Bill 135. Except with respect to the rules around notice and debate of such a motion, there are no other restrictions; Standing Order 46 is very clear. We have had several examples in this House of time allocation motions which allocate no committee time and several examples which allocate no time for debate at Third Reading. In his ruling of July 21, 1992, Speaker Warner stated that the Standing Orders do not "require that the motion provide for a minimum period of debate at third reading of a bill". Similarly, there is no Standing Order requirement that the motion provide for committee consideration. Let me be clear, each of the 3 required stages of legislative consideration will be decided by this House. Additionally, the required 3 days of Second Reading debate have occurred. All of the terms of the Standing Orders have been satisfied. I find that Government Notices of Motion 8 and 9 do comply with Standing Order 46 and are therefore in order.

Mr. Baird moved,			M. Baird propose,
That pursuant to Standing Order 46 and notwithstanding any other Standing Order or Special Order of the House relating to Bill 135, An Act to recognize Ontario's recreational hunting and fishing heritage and to establish the Fish and Wildlife Heritage Commission, when Bill 135 is next called as a government order, the Speaker shall put every question necessary to dispose of the second reading stage of the bill, without further debate or amendment, and That, the vote on second reading may, pursuant to Standing Order 28(h), be deferred until the next Sessional day during the Routine Proceeding "Deferred Votes"; and That on the same day that the bill receives second reading, it may be called for third reading and; When the order for third reading is called, the Speaker shall put every question necessary to dispose of this stage of the bill without further debate or amendment; and That, the vote on third reading may, pursuant to Standing Order 28(h), be deferred until the next Sessional day during the Routine Proceeding "Deferred Votes"; and That, in the case of any division relating to any proceedings on the bill, the division bell shall be limited to five minutes.
After some time, Mr. Bisson moved,			Après quelque temps, M. Bisson propose,
That the motion be amended by striking out the third and fourth paragraphs of the motion as it appears on the Orders and Notices Paper, and substituting the following: "At such time, the bill be ordered referred to the Committee of the Whole House, and that 1 hour be allotted to this stage, at the expiry of which the Chair of the Committee of the Whole House shall interrupt the proceedings and shall, without further debate or amendment, put every question necessary to dispose of all remaining sections of the bill and any amendments thereto and report the bill to the House; "That, upon receiving the report of the Committee of the Whole House, the Speaker shall put the question for adoption of the report forthwith, which question shall be decided without debate or amendment and at such time the bill shall be ordered for Third Reading; "That the order for Third Reading may immediately be called and that sixty minutes shall be allotted to the Third Reading stage of the bill, to be divided equally among all recognized parties, and at the end of that time the Speaker shall interrupt the proceedings and shall put every question necessary to dispose of this stage of the bill without further debate or amendment; and"
The debate continued and, after some time, the amendment to the motion, having been put, was lost on the following division:-			Le débat se poursuit et après quelque temps, l'amendement à la motion, mise aux voix, est rejetée par le vote suivant:-
