Fisheries Committee on Dec. 4th, 2024

[The Clerk]

No.

[The Chair, Liberal, Ken McDonald]

Okay.

There are three votes in all. Unless there's any objection, I will seek the unanimous consent of the committee to group the votes together for a decision.

Is there unanimous consent to proceed this way?

[Some hon. members]

No.

[The Chair, Liberal, Ken McDonald]

Okay, we'll go by each vote then.

I will now put the question on each vote separately.

Shall vote 1b under Department of Fisheries and Oceans carry or not carry?

[Rick Perkins, Conservative, South Shore—St. Margarets, NS]

No.

[Bobby Morrissey, Liberal, Egmont, PE]

Chair, I have a point of order.

[The Chair, Liberal, Ken McDonald]

Yes, go ahead

[Bobby Morrissey, Liberal, Egmont, PE]

Could you tell us what the implications are? What is the monetary amount? Do you have a brief?

[Rick Perkins, Conservative, South Shore—St. Margarets, NS]

Is there a full motion?

[The Chair, Liberal, Ken McDonald]

I don't have any amounts.

[Bobby Morrissey, Liberal, Egmont, PE]

I'm sorry; what is the title? What is the area of the department we're voting on to approve?

[The Chair, Liberal, Ken McDonald]

These are the supplementary estimates (B), 2024-25.

[Bobby Morrissey, Liberal, Egmont, PE]

The deputy could give us that. What is that money for? I want to know before we vote for it or against it. Can you give me a general idea?

[Annette Gibbons]

We're just looking for the—

[Bobby Morrissey, Liberal, Egmont, PE]

I want to know what the money is for so that we'll know who's voting against it and who's voting for it.

[The Chair, Liberal, Ken McDonald]

We'll suspend for a moment.

[The Chair, Liberal, Ken McDonald]

All right, shall vote—

[Rick Perkins, Conservative, South Shore—St. Margarets, NS]

I have a point of order.

[The Chair, Liberal, Ken McDonald]

Yes, Mr. Perkins.

[Rick Perkins, Conservative, South Shore—St. Margarets, NS]

It's 6:32, so I would say the meeting is over.

[The Chair, Liberal, Ken McDonald]

No, it's not.

[Rick Perkins, Conservative, South Shore—St. Margarets, NS]

It is 6:32. You said the meeting only goes until 6:32 so it's over.

[The Chair, Liberal, Ken McDonald]

You asked the clerk to see if there was additional time and she found additional time.

[Rick Perkins, Conservative, South Shore—St. Margarets, NS]

She didn't respond before 6:32, so I call the meeting over.

[The Chair, Liberal, Ken McDonald]

Yes, she did.
