We would appreciate that. Thank you very much.

Is there consensus that I still proceed with the separate votes?

Shall votes 1b, 5b, and 50b under Justice carry?

JUSTICE

Department

Vote 1b—Operating expenditures..........$683,004

Vote 5b—The grants listed in the Estimates and contributions..........$9,800,000

Supreme Court of Canada

Vote 50b—Program expenditures..........$118,613

(Votes 1b, 5b, and 50b agreed to)

Shall vote 35b under Justice carry?

I was going to allow them to vote separately on it or do you want to just leave it in abeyance?

The Chair Conservative Mike Wallace

We'll leave it in abeyance until Tuesday.

Shall the chair report votes...? We'll wait on that. We'll do it all on Tuesday. How does that sound?

I will suspend for one minute and then we'll go in camera.
