ORDERS OF THE DAY

ORDRE DU JOUR

Second Reading of Bill 117, An Act to amend certain statutes with respect to the regulation of pharmacies and other matters concerning regulated health professions.

Deuxième lecture du projet de loi 117, Loi visant à modifier certaines lois en ce qui concerne la réglementation des pharmacies et d’autres questions relatives aux professions de la santé réglementées.

10 H 30

The Speaker addressed the House:-

Le Président s'adresse à l'Assemblée :-

Members will be aware that there appear on today's Orders and Notices Paper, two notices of an Opposition Day to be debated next week. Under Standing Order 43(c), the Speaker is required to select one of these notices for consideration.

This presented a challenge in this case for two reasons; first, both opposition parties have only one allocated day remaining and second, the notices were both received at virtually the same time. Any decision based on these considerations therefore would have been arbitrary.

However, Members will also know that Standing Order 43(a)(iii) provides that the 5 available Opposition Days in this Fall Sessional Period are to be allocated between the two opposition parties on the basis of the membership of their caucuses, relative to each other. Currently, where circumstance presents us with the situation where it will be possible for there to be only 4 Opposition Days this Fall it is, I think, a fair and reasonable thing to apply that same formula.

In so doing, the result is that the Official Opposition is mathematically closer to being entitled to three of four Opposition Days than the Third Party is to being entitled to two of four.

I therefore decide that the motion standing in the name of Mr. Hudak is the one that will be selected for debate next week.
