Madam Speaker, I would have to agree with the last comment of the hon. member. Indeed, if there is illness then special account has to be taken of that. Nevertheless, there is probably some middle ground that could be found to say: "We excuse you for your illness, we will help you with that. In the meantime here are the rules we are going to establish that you in your turn must obey".
In the House of Commons on May 12th, 1994. See this statement in context.
