Peter Julian NDP New Westminster—Burnaby, BC

I have a point of order, Madam Chair.

I think the issue of “on division” votes will come naturally. I don't think we need to discuss it. There will be some times when one or another party will ask for a recorded vote, but I think that generally if there's goodwill on all sides we're going to find that clauses are going to be regrouped and passed on division, so we'll just play it by ear.

Liberal

The Chair Liberal Hedy Fry

Yes, Mr. Julian. I think that's what we have been doing so far, but we will play it by ear.

Now, shall we go to BQ-5?

We have four minutes left. I don't know if we can do BQ-5 in four minutes. That's a challenge to the committee.

I am listening to everyone speaking at the moment.

Now, Mr. Champoux, you were going to come up on BQ-5, but did you have something to say?

Madam Chair, we are on amendment BQ‑5, and I would like to inform the committee that I will withdraw it. At the same time, I move that the meeting be adjourned.
