Can I ask you a question for clarification? I don't understand how debate can be limited like that. Maybe you could clarify. If other members want to participate in the debate and want to discuss the motion, I do not understand how it is that a motion can be called to a vote and nobody can stop that. There's still a speakers list; there are still MPs who want to be heard. We had this on another committee, Mr. Chair, and you could not call the question to a vote until debate ended.
