We'll now proceed to clause 3. Clause 3 is as presented. I note there will be an amendment to create an additional or a new clause, clause 3.1.
As I see it, we'll pose the question on the existing clause 3 and then we will go to the amendment to create the new clause.
Shall clause 3 carry?

Can you back up, please? Do we have amendments to clause 3?

The Chair Conservative Bruce Stanton
Mr. Lemay has introduced a new clause. It is clause 3.1.
It's a new clause, so we'll actually ask the question on the existing clause 3. The effect of Mr. Lemay's amendment would be to create, in fact, a new clause. So that's a separate question. Okay?
