ORDERS OF THE DAY |
ORDRE DU JOUR |
|
A debate arose on the motion for Second Reading of Bill 201, An Act to provide for review of expenses in the public sector. |
Il s'élève un débat sur la motion portant deuxième lecture du projet de loi 201, Loi prévoyant l'examen des dépenses dans le secteur public. |
|
On a point of order being raised with respect to Standing Order 71(b), the Speaker recessed the House for fifteen minutes. |
|
Upon his return, the Speaker delivered the following ruling:- |
|
The Member for Welland is correct in his reading of Standing Order 71. There is an opportunity for Members to notify the Clerk of an intention to give notice of a reasoned amendment to the motion for second reading. The effect of such notification is to delay the calling of the order for second reading until the next sessional day. This Standing Order has been a part of our rules for some time and predates the most recent Standing Order changes which altered the House schedule. Notwithstanding Standing Order 71, the Government's intention to call Bill 201 this morning was clearly indicated by way of today's Order Paper. That being the case, Members did have an opportunity to provide notification under 71(b) if they intended to avail themselves of its provisions. Since no notification was given before 9 a.m. today, there was no reason not to allow the debate to proceed. The Order has been called, the motion for second reading moved and the debate has commenced. Having said that, the Standing Orders do provide that Members have until noon to indicate whether they intend to file notice of a reasoned amendment. My role in part is to facilitate the business of the House. With that and the particular conundrum we find ourselves in this morning in mind, I am going to give members an opportunity now to verbally indicate if it is their intent to file notice of a reasoned amendment as provided for in 71(b). If so, I will seek a motion to adjourn this debate and call for orders of the day. If not, I will allow the debate to proceed. |
|
No Member having indicated an intention to file notice of a reasoned amendment, the Speaker allowed the debate to proceed. |
|
After some time, pursuant to Standing Order 9(b), the motion for the adjournment of the debate was deemed to have been made and carried. |
Après quelque temps, conformément à l'article 9 b) du Règlement, la motion d'ajournement du débat est réputée avoir été proposée et adoptée. |
|
Pursuant to Standing Order 9(a), the Acting Speaker (Mr. Wilson) recessed the House at 10:15 a.m. until 10:30 a.m. |
Conformément à l'article 9 a), le président par intérim (M. Wilson) ordonne une pause à l'Assemblée à 10 h 15 jusqu'à 10 h 30. |
