It's not incorrect, and it's going to be on the video. That's the best part of it.

That's the best part of it, Mr. Chair, because everybody's going to watch it. It's going to be awesome.

The Clerk of the Committee Mr. Alexandre Roger
The question is, shall the decision of the chair be sustained? If you're in favour of the chair, you vote yes. If you're against, you vote no.

Could I get clarity specifically on the ruling that is being challenged here? Could you read it back?
11:05 a.m.
The Clerk
My understanding, with the chair's prerogative, is that the chair's ruling was Mr. Beech was first, Mr. Ste-Marie second and Mr. Stewart third.
Is that correct?
11:05 a.m.
The Clerk
That was his ruling, not—

No, that's not what he said, though. He said Ste-Marie, then me, which was also incorrect.

I actually clarified with the clerk that MP Beech was up first. I got clarification that MP Beech was up first.

You'll be investigated too, like Trudeau. Maybe you can be investigated. There's lots of that going around.

MP Stewart, we've had to call you out a number of times on your antics in meetings. Again, respect decorum for this committee, for the members and your colleagues.
We are moving to the floor. MP Beech, you have the floor.

Terry Beech Liberal Burnaby North—Seymour, BC
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Good morning, members. As I was saying before, I hope everyone had a tremendous Mother's Day.
As we all know, I circulated a motion last week with regard to our study on the budget implementation act. After speaking with members from all parties, I believe we have majority support to proceed in this matter.
I therefore move the motion as circulated.

Dan Albas Conservative Central Okanagan—Similkameen—Nicola, BC
My understanding is we're not to refer to in camera sessions and the business that is done therein. I'd like you to consult with the clerk on that point, because my understanding is that when a motion or a conversation happens in camera, it is extremely rare for it to suddenly be the business of an open committee.
I would like to know, through you, Mr. Chair, and through consultation, about that. I don't believe the motion is in order.

The Chair Liberal Peter Fonseca
Thank you, MP Albas.
MP Beech, you can move it again as a motion.
I have MP Dzerowicz on a point of order.
