Justice Committee on Nov. 2nd, 2010

[The Chair, Conservative, Ed Fast]

No, I heard “on division” over here, and then—

[Brian Murphy, Liberal, Moncton—Riverview—Dieppe, NB]

He's not the chair.

[The Chair, Conservative, Ed Fast]

No, he isn't.

[Marlene Jennings, Liberal, Notre-Dame-de-Grâce—Lachine, QC]

I asked for a recorded vote.

[The Chair, Conservative, Ed Fast]

Okay. We'll take a recorded vote.

[Marlene Jennings, Liberal, Notre-Dame-de-Grâce—Lachine, QC]

Thank you.

[Bob Dechert, Conservative, Mississauga—Erindale, ON]

Mr. Chair, if I could ask for one clarification, what is the chair's view of the use of the word “adopted” in terms of the motion, that the clauses be adopted and the bill be reported to the House?

[The Chair, Conservative, Ed Fast]

I'm not sure we have to get into the word “adopted”, because all of the clauses have been carried. I'm assuming that after the recorded vote, one way or another, we assume there will be a result, so I'm not sure the word “adopted”—

[Bob Dechert, Conservative, Mississauga—Erindale, ON]

The word “adopted” is part of the bill, I assume is what it means.

[The Chair, Conservative, Ed Fast]

“Adopted”, which would be “carried”—

[Bob Dechert, Conservative, Mississauga—Erindale, ON]

That is, “adopted” is part of the bill.

[The Chair, Conservative, Ed Fast]

Yes, although the term that is customarily used at this table would be “carried”.

[Bob Dechert, Conservative, Mississauga—Erindale, ON]

Okay.

[The Chair, Conservative, Ed Fast]

Could I have the actual motion read back?

[Joe Comartin, NDP, Windsor—Tecumseh, ON]

It reads that the title and clauses 1 to 5 inclusively, as corrected, of Bill C-389 be adopted, and that the chair be ordered to report the bill to the House.

[The Chair, Conservative, Ed Fast]

We'll call the recorded vote.

(Motion agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])

We're adjourned.
