The next question is on Motion No. 4. The vote will apply to Motions Nos. 18 and 32 as well.

[Don Boudria, Liberal, Glengarry—Prescott—Russell, ON]

Madam Speaker, I wonder if you would be so kind as to seek whether or not the House is prepared to give its unanimous consent to apply the vote taken on Motion No. 1 to Motion No. 4 which is now before the House?

[The Acting Speaker (Mrs. Maheu)]

The House has heard the suggestion. Is there unanimous consent?

No.

[The Acting Speaker (Mrs. Maheu)]

We do not have unanimous consent.

The next division is on Motion No. 9. The vote on this motion also applies to Motions Nos. 23 and 37.

[Don Boudria, Liberal, Glengarry—Prescott—Russell, ON]
