Canadian Heritage committee  I don't have anything to add.

Canadian Heritage committee  I can read out the motion as amended, that second paragraph, just so it's clear. With the amendment, the motion would read: That the committee prioritize this motion over all other current and future studies and other committee business, so that the committee devote its first meeting at the return from the holiday recess to it and that the committee report to the House that given these job cuts, it would be inappropriate for the CBC/Radio-Canada to grant bonuses to executive members.

Canadian Heritage committee  There is precedence to report to the House based on a motion adopted—

Canadian Heritage committee  I'm sorry, Mr. Peinert, but we're having issues with the sound again.

Canadian Heritage committee  I'm sorry, Mr. Peinert, but we're having issues with the sound again.

Canadian Heritage committee  The only issue would be that change of sound, which might hurt the interpreters.

Canadian Heritage committee  Is that on the English channel?

Canadian Heritage committee  A dilatory motion is to replace the subject at hand with another order of business. The vote would not be on the motion itself. The vote is to resume debate on the motion, and that is a dilatory motion, which is not debatable and amendable.

Canadian Heritage committee  Yes.

Canadian Heritage committee  I'll just clarify. The vote is challenging the chair's ruling that the motion is currently admissible.

Canadian Heritage committee  My understanding is that a motion was moved. It was ruled admissible, and that decision is being challenged. The vote is on the challenge to the chair. If you vote yea, you agree that the motion is admissible, and we would move to debate. If you vote nay, we do not proceed to debate.

Canadian Heritage committee  The chair asks if his ruling shall be sustained. (Ruling of the chair overturned: nays 8; yeas 2)

Canadian Heritage committee  The motion is to adjourn the meeting. (Motion agreed to: yeas 6; nays 4)

Canadian Heritage committee  For the resources, that is a good question. Should the motion pass, I would request the additional time. Regarding Ms. Tait's availability, I asked and she has a meeting and needs to leave at 9:30; however, should a motion be passed, that doesn't mean she wouldn't change that depending on what the committee decides.

Canadian Heritage committee  That's correct, yes.
