We will then go to BQ-16.
Once again, previous motions have been ruled out of order because of royal recommendation, so I will also rule that one out of order to be consistent with what we've dealt with.
We are now going to move to motion NDP-3, which is the same issue again.
Do we want to reopen that?

Mr. Chair, I had two amendments to move on this point.
The word “If”, which appears at the start of the sentence, must be changed. I move that Bill C-36, in Clause 22, be amended by replacing line 27 on page 19 with the following:
26.1 When the requirement for an application for
That would replace what's proposed in the bill:

Mr. Chair, I move that Bill C-36, in Clause 25, be amended by deleting lines 1 to 3 on page 21.
We should see if we have disposed of this in another way. That's what I'm trying to check.
In the bill, the paragraph reads as follows:
(d) on the conditions that may be prescribed, any other individual authorized in writing by the individual.
I believe we've previously disposed of that, haven't we?

Conservative

I'll deem the amendment to have been not carried.

On clause 28, we do have some amendments before us. We've got BQ-21. I believe we did have some of this discussion before. Do we want to deem this as...?
