Mr. Beaulieu, I think I get what you're saying.
I spoke about it with the clerk last week, and she can correct me if I'm wrong. When we decided on the speaking time, it was for the full two hours. The time allocated in the first round of questions is six minutes for the first speaker from each party. For the second round and subsequent rounds, the time allowed is two rounds of five minutes for the Liberal Party and the Conservative Party, and one round of two and a half minutes for the Bloc Québécois and the NDP.
When we begin the second part of meeting, whether it's one hour or two hours, we don't start over again. The speaking time is set for an entire segment. This is always six minutes for the first round followed by two rounds of five minutes for the Liberal Party and the Conservative Party, and one round of two and a half minutes for the NDP and the Bloc Québécois. It's all based on the number of seats held by each party.
