Thank you, Mr. Zoe. The motion is in order. To the motion.

I call Committee of the Whole back to order. We have one item before us. General comments. Mr. Braden.

Thank you. You raise a good point. This is good drafting instruction, so that the legislation can be drafted up. This will not be your last opportunity to speak to it. There is always the prerogative to change your mind. To the motion.

Thank you, Mr. Menicoche. Does the committee agree?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I’ll be voting in favour of the amendment. I do think that the way these amendments came forward on the floor of the House in Committee of the Whole is an aberration to how we normally deal with amendments to legislation in our committees. It may only be a convention, it may only be a tradition that we don’t make those kind of significant amendments in Committee of the Whole, but the fact is normally those are carried out in committee and we have diverged from normal process here. For that reason I do agree with the Member that we do need to give constituents a chance...

Thank you, Mr. Roland. Mr. Yakeleya.

Thank you, Mr. Roland. Mr. Braden.

Thank you, Mr. Miltenberger. Mr. Braden.

Thank you, Mr. Menicoche. Is the committee agreed?

Thank you, Mr. Boyd. Mr. Hawkins.
