We're discussing the main motion, actually. After the amendment, we decided—

On a point of order, Mr. Chair.
The interpretation has stopped working.

I'll be very quick.
It's exceptionally odd for me to not have a government response to a study. It is absolutely mind-boggling—

I have a point of order, Mr. Chair.

I know they may not have liked the last vote, but that previous motion was defeated, as my colleague Mr. Perkins just said, and they're still speaking to it. I just hope we can speak to the main motion.

The Chair Liberal Ken McDonald
I believe that's what I asked to be spoken to. I think that if you're speaking to the main motion not requiring a response from the government, as Mr. Kelloway mentioned, in my view that would be considered discussing the motion itself.
If there's no further discussion, we'll go to a vote on the main motion as presented by Mr. Perkins.

Mr. Chair, on a point of order, please, I'm trying to follow here. Was the last motion defeated?

On a point of order, we've already voted on Mr. Hardie's motion, Madam Clerk. This is on the main motion.

Oh, I'm sorry. Yes. Thank you.
This is on the motion of Mr. Perkins. I correct the record.

I just want to make sure, because it seems to be a little bit confusing here, at least for me.

The Clerk
Would you like me to reread the motion?

Serge Cormier Liberal Acadie—Bathurst, NB
The amendment that Mr. Hardie proposed was defeated. Now we're voting on Mr. Perkins' motion, right?
