Mr. Chairman, when you make a list, you make it based on the proper speaking order. When I left, I was second on that list. I asked to swap turns so that Mark would take my place, which was refused. Incidentally, you will have noticed that when we ask for the floor, we raise our hands. We don't ask the audience whether we can have the floor; we make it known to the Chair that we would like to speak. Is that what we do, yes or no?
I informed the Chair that I wished to be on the list, and enquired as to whether we could switch the order of the turns, so that instead of being second, third or fourth, I would be last on the list of speakers on clause 10.
When you raise your hand to ask for the floor, of whom are you requesting permission to speak? Not me; rather, the Chair and the clerk. No one else. Before leaving, everyone saw me go and speak with the clerk. I didn't want to interrupt the discussion. I did that out of respect for all the work that has been done. That's all.
