PRAYERS 1:30 P.M.			PRIÈRES 13 H 30
The Speaker delivered the following ruling:- I have had an opportunity to reflect on the submissions that were made yesterday concerning developments in the Standing Committee on Finance and Economic Affairs in respect of its consideration of Bill 5, An Act to temporarily freeze automobile insurance rates for private passenger vehicles and to provide for the review and regulation of risk classification systems and automobile insurance rates for private passenger vehicles. While our practice is that matters that arise in committee should be considered in and disposed of by that committee, I appreciate that the matter before this particular committee, and the committee proceedings itself, were the subject of a December 4, 2003 Order of the House. The committee met on the morning of December 15, 2003 it convened again that afternoon and in the course of that meeting it adjourned for lack of quorum. In reviewing the December 4, 2003 order of this House, I note that it directs the committee to meet for 2 days to consider Bill 5. I want to point out here that committee meeting days are differently defined and not necessarily equivalent to "sessional days". In fact, in the next section of the House Order the permissive form "may" is used in setting out the times for the committee to meet. Thus, meeting for any amount of time within the timeframe established for those two days has the committee acting in compliance with the House Order. That it did not meet yesterday afternoon, does not detract from the fact that it met on that day. Clearly, adjourning for lack of quorum was an unexpected and less than favourable outcome for this committee. It does not however in any way abrogate the motion passed by this House on December 4, 2003. Having said that, I want to impress upon all Members that committee work is a fundamentally important component of our Parliamentary process. A working committee system affords an opportunity for Members to become familiar with issues and to understand more fully the impact of proposed policy decisions. Perhaps more importantly, it provides an essential liaison between we in this place and the people we serve. All Members should consider carefully their committee obligations and be vigilant about living up to them. I wish to thank the members who spoke to this matter for their submissions.
