Finance Committee on Nov. 21st, 2012

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

We will have a recorded vote.

(Clause 144 agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])

Shall clause 145 carry?

[Mauril Bélanger, Liberal, Ottawa—Vanier, ON]

Let's check, Mr. Chair, with a recorded vote, please.

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

We will have recorded vote.

(Clause 145 agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])

Shall clause 146 carry?

[Mauril Bélanger, Liberal, Ottawa—Vanier, ON]

Don't be surprised, but I think we once again need a recorded vote, Mr. Chair.

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

We will have a recorded vote.

(Clause 146 agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])

Shall clause 147 carry?

[Mauril Bélanger, Liberal, Ottawa—Vanier, ON]

Let's have a recorded vote on that, Mr. Chairman.

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

We will have a recorded vote.

(Clause 147 agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])

Shall clause 148 carry?

[Mauril Bélanger, Liberal, Ottawa—Vanier, ON]

Maybe, but I think it would be better to check with a recorded vote, Mr. Chair.

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

We will have a recorded vote.

(Clause 148 agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])

Shall clause 149 carry?

[Mauril Bélanger, Liberal, Ottawa—Vanier, ON]

Mr. Chair, allow me to call for a recorded vote.

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

We will have a recorded vote.

(Clause 149 agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])

Shall clause 150 carry?

[Mauril Bélanger, Liberal, Ottawa—Vanier, ON]

Perhaps, Mr. Chair, but let's check with a recorded vote.

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

We will have a recorded vote.

(Clause 150 agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])

Shall clause 151 carry?

[Mauril Bélanger, Liberal, Ottawa—Vanier, ON]

Mr. Chairman, could we have a recorded vote on that, please.

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

You certainly can.

(Clause 151 agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])

Shall clause 152 carry?

[Mauril Bélanger, Liberal, Ottawa—Vanier, ON]

Perhaps, Mr. Chairman, but a recorded vote is required.

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

It will be a recorded vote.

(Clause 152 agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])

We seem to have a pattern of unanimous decisions. Would the committee permit your very hard-working chair to combine clauses 153 to 164, if I ask very nicely?

[Mauril Bélanger, Liberal, Ottawa—Vanier, ON]

You have no unanimous consent, Mr. Chairman.

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

Okay.

Did you want a clarification on that, Ms. Glover?

[Shelly Glover, Conservative, Saint Boniface, MB]

Yes. Would it be possible for the government side to indicate a vote of “yes” to every clause and “no” to every amendment? Could we apply the vote?

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

What I am going to do is have the clerks consider that. I will continue on as we are, and they will consult together and come back with a recommendation to me as the chair.

Is that okay?

[Shelly Glover, Conservative, Saint Boniface, MB]

I appreciate that. Thank you.

[Mark Strahl, Conservative, Chilliwack—Fraser Canyon, BC]

That’s a good ruling.

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

Shall clause 153 carry?

[Mauril Bélanger, Liberal, Ottawa—Vanier, ON]

Let's have a recorded vote on that, Mr. Chairman.

(Clause 153 agreed to: yeas 11; nays 0 [See Minutes of Proceedings])
