A point of order.
Forgive me, but under clause 7 there was an incidental amendment that was not recognized. I wonder if we removed it.

I didn't see it. It has been carried. The bill has been considered and completed.
The clause was defeated, so it's impossible to amend a clause that has been defeated. I didn't see anybody seeking to move an amendment.

The question I have here is to Indians off reserve. Under subclause 4(3), which identifies sections of the Indian Act that do not apply to Indians living off reserve, including references to sections concerning wills and estates.... As a result of the defeat of clause 7, which leaves the wills and estates sections 42 to 48 of the Indian Act intact, subclause 4(3) should refer to all wills and estates sections of the Indian Act, namely sections 42 and 52.
I'm just hoping to correct that.

I think there is a desire to make an amendment to clause 4, and possibly clause 5, but I'll have our legislative clerk—

It's that Bill C-428 in clause 4 be amended by replacing line 19 on page 2—

It seems to me that if somehow this wasn't submitted or was missed in the process—we'll seek to find that out—it probably has to be amended at report stage in the House, at this point in time.
There is nothing that can be done at this point in committee. It probably has to be done at report stage in the House.
Colleagues, not seeing any additional discussion with regard to future business or any other matter, we will adjourn.
The committee meeting is adjourned.
