The Chair Conservative Chris Warkentin

Colleagues, I call this meeting back to order.

Moving on to the next question, shall the schedule carry?

(Schedule agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])

(On clause 1—Short Title)

Amendment NDP-50, I believe, is a motion on the short title.

Dennis Bevington NDP Western Arctic, NT

Yes. I move that Bill C-47, in clause 1, be amended by replacing lines 4 and 5 on page 1 with the following:

This Act may be cited as the Implementation of Northern Land Claim Agreements Act.

9:52 a.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Chris Warkentin

I do have a ruling with regard to this. Amendment NDP-50 is inadmissible as the title of the bill can only be amended if amendments have been adopted that would warrant such a change in title. Therefore, it is my ruling that this won't be considered. We will now move to the vote.

Shall the short title carry?

On a point of order, did we get clarification about the spelling mistakes in the bill on “judgment” as to whether they will be corrected on reprint, even though we didn't do an amendment?

9:52 a.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Chris Warkentin

We did spend a fair bit of time on that, Ms. Crowder, and we saw no evidence of spelling mistakes as it relates to “judgment”, so we have sought significant—

Jean Crowder NDP Nanaimo—Cowichan, BC

So there's a difference in the spelling and the spelling in the bill...?

9:52 a.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Chris Warkentin

We spent significant time.... Maybe if your office could forward those—

Jean Crowder NDP Nanaimo—Cowichan, BC

Okay.

9:52 a.m.

The Chair Conservative Chris Warkentin

We hadn't found those at this table.
