All those in--

Liberal

David McGuinty Liberal Ottawa South, ON

Just a second. What is paragraph (r)?

10:30 a.m.

Conservative

Stephen Woodworth Conservative Kitchener Centre, ON

Proposed paragraph 30.(1)(r) is to add the word “including” after the words “educational institution”.

10:30 a.m.

Liberal

David McGuinty Liberal Ottawa South, ON

So it's “an amount to an educational institution including for scholarships”.

10:30 a.m.

Stephen Woodworth Conservative Kitchener Centre, ON

Yes.

10:30 a.m.

Is it G-5.1?

10:30 a.m.

Procedural Clerk

Wayne Cole

It's G-5.1

10:30 a.m.

Conservative

Stephen Woodworth Conservative Kitchener Centre, ON

In my view, it's G-3.1.

10:35 a.m.

NDP

Linda Duncan NDP Edmonton Strathcona, AB

They share an amendment.

10:35 a.m.

Conservative

Stephen Woodworth Conservative Kitchener Centre, ON

Yes, with the same amendments. If we can have the result in G-3.1 apply to G-5.1.... I'm just quickly scanning to see if it applies elsewhere.

Is there a G-18.1? Yes, there is.

If the result in G-3.1 could be applied in the same manner, with the same friendly amendments, to G-5.1 and G-18.1, that is my proposal.

10:35 a.m.

Liberal

The Vice-Chair Liberal Francis Scarpaleggia

We're voting on G-5.1, as is, at the moment. Is that it?

10:35 a.m.

Conservative

Stephen Woodworth Conservative Kitchener Centre, ON

With the friendly amendments that were made to G-3.1.

10:35 a.m.

Liberal

The Vice-Chair Liberal Francis Scarpaleggia

Could you tell us what those were, again, please?

10:35 a.m.

Conservative

Stephen Woodworth Conservative Kitchener Centre, ON

Yes. It is to replace the word “may” with the words “is entitled to” in both of the two paragraphs.

10:35 a.m.

Liberal

The Vice-Chair Liberal Francis Scarpaleggia

Are there any issues with that?
