I think you've studied this bill more than I have, so maybe correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding is that the rules would be put in place, and then at its first meeting each parliamentary caucus would have to decide whether or not to use those suggested rules or alternatives. There is actually, potentially a mechanism for a small party to say that given we only have 12 people, we want to meet a threshold of 50%, or six people, to trigger a review. Correct me if I'm mistaken about that.
On December 2nd, 2014. See this statement in context.
