I have a point of order.
Regarding the application of the Standing Orders, Standing Order 116 (1) states:
(1) In a standing, special or legislative committee, the Standing Orders shall apply so far as may be applicable, except the standing orders as to the election of a Speaker, seconding of motions, limiting the number of times of speaking and the length of speeches.
Regarding the end of debate, Standing Order 116(2)a) states:
Unless a time limit has been adopted by the committee or by the House, the Chair of a standing, special or legislative committee may not bring a debate to an end while there are members present who still wish to participate. A decision of the Chair in this regard may not be subject to an appeal to the committee.
So I would ask you to consider those factors, Mr. Chair.
