I'd like a recorded vote.

Liberal

The Chair Liberal Deb Schulte

By the way, before you vote, if this is adopted then NDP-79 cannot be moved because there will be a line conflict, and PV-117 will be moot because it's basically taken over with this.

(Amendment negatived: nays 6; yeas 3 [See Minutes of Proceedings])

9:10 p.m.

Liberal

The Chair Liberal Deb Schulte

Now we have NDP-79.

Yes, Mr. Arnold.

9:10 p.m.

Conservative

Mel Arnold Conservative North Okanagan—Shuswap, BC

On a point of order, Madam Chair, rather than at every vote we ask for a recorded vote, can it simply be determined at this time that every vote will be a recorded vote?

9:10 p.m.

Liberal

The Chair Liberal Deb Schulte

I think we talked about that before and the answer was no.

9:10 p.m.

An hon. member

That would be fine by us.

9:10 p.m.

A voice

You'd need unanimous consent.

9:10 p.m.

Liberal

The Chair Liberal Deb Schulte

Is there unanimous consent on that?

9:10 p.m.

Some hon. members

Agreed.

9:10 p.m.

Liberal

The Chair Liberal Deb Schulte

With unanimous consent, it will be a recorded vote on all of them. You were unanimous on that. Co-operation is wonderful.

If NDP-79 is adopted, PV-117 and LIB-101.1 cannot be moved because there will be a line conflict.

(Amendment negatived: nays 8; yeas 1 [See Minutes of Proceedings])

Now we have PV-117. If it's adopted, LIB-101.1 cannot be moved because there will be a line conflict.

(Amendment negatived: nays 8; yeas 1 [See Minutes of Proceedings])

Now we're on LIB-101.1.

(Amendment agreed to: yeas 6; nays 3 [See Minutes of Proceedings])

On LIB-102, we'll have a recorded vote.

(Amendment agreed to: yeas 6; nays 3 [See Minutes of Proceedings])

We are on PV-118. If PV-118 is adopted, LIB-102.1 cannot be moved because of redundancy.

(Amendment negatived: nays 8; yeas 1 [See Minutes of Proceedings])

Now we're on LIB-102.1.

(Amendment agreed to: yeas 6; nays 2 [See Minutes of Proceedings])

On PV-119, shall the amendment carry?
