The Chair Liberal Sean Casey

Mr. Naqvi, we have a point of order from Mrs. Goodridge.

1:05 p.m.

Conservative

Laila Goodridge Conservative Fort McMurray—Cold Lake, AB

Thank you, Mr. Chair.

You've ruled Mr. Naqvi out of order. Therefore, by continuing, he is challenging the chair.

Is Mr. Naqvi attempting to challenge the chair? If so, I believe that is a vote that has to go forward.

1:05 p.m.

Liberal

The Chair Liberal Sean Casey

Mr. Naqvi has five minutes that he can use to offer comments or questions to the witnesses. He's approaching the end of those five minutes. He has the floor until then.

Go ahead, Mr. Naqvi.

1:05 p.m.

Liberal

Yasir Naqvi Liberal Ottawa Centre, ON

Thank you very much, Chair.

I'm sure the Conservatives, when they are on the receiving end of hearing the kinds of tactics that they continue to deploy by ensuring that appropriate debate that's in the best interest of Canadians does not take place...they resort to these procedural tactics.

I think it is extremely important that this committee hear from the two respective ministers on the supplementary estimates.

1:10 p.m.

Liberal

The Chair Liberal Sean Casey

Thank you, Mr. Naqvi. I'm sorry, but that's your time.

We are past the appointed hour. Is it the will of the committee to adjourn the meeting?

1:10 p.m.

Some hon. members

Agreed.

1:10 p.m.

The Chair Liberal Sean Casey

We're adjourned.
