Thanks, Mr. Moore.
Just for clarity, I do consult with our clerk and the legislative team with respect to whether something is procedurally within the scope of what is being proposed. Also, substantially, it is up to the person who is questioning the admissibility of a certain thing to make their argument, and I will make a ruling after the fact. That is kind of how it's been worked out in the past, and I had my conversations with the clerk as well. I hope that clarifies it for you.
I will put LIB-1 to a recorded vote. Can I see thumbs-up if you want to do a recorded vote?
Mr. Clerk, please do the recorded vote by alphabetical order by member.
(Amendment agreed to: yeas 10; nays 1 [See Minutes of Proceedings])
(Clause 1 as amended agreed to: yeas 10; nays 1)
(On clause 2)
Thank you, Mr. Clerk.
Now we move to clause 2, and we'll first go to PV-1.
Just to clarify for everybody, if PV-1 is adopted, LIB-2 cannot be moved, and that is as stated in House of Commons Procedure and Practice: “Amendments must be proposed following the order of the text to be amended. Once a line of a clause has been amended by the committee, it cannot be further amended by a subsequent amendment as a given line may be amended only once.
We'll go on to PV-1.
