Mr. Speaker, on the same point of order, any measure that the Chair may take to allow the hon. member to express his views will be welcomed by the Bloc Quebecois, particularly since we are aware that our colleague worked hard in committee. However, we are opposed to interrupting our proceedings, since it is urgent that Parliament deal with this bill.
We are prepared to give more time—

Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of order. As you know I earlier raised the point that an amendment had been incorrectly put on the Order Paper. It is the one which you have just read, but it should have been another one. You have deferred consideration of that until you have had a chance to consult. As this particular motion which you are asking us to vote on is under consideration by the Chair, I believe it would be appropriate to defer putting this particular question in Group No. 1 until a proper investigation of which motion should have been on the Order Paper has taken place.

The Chair will hold Motion No. 5 in abeyance until a bit more research is done.
