Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to inform the House of the following:
I think there will be a resolution tomorrow about the report stage and the third reading of the bill on warrants to arrest, that is Bill C-16.
With your permission, before I continue, I would like to thank the House leaders of all parties for their co-operation in achieving consensus on what I am about to read.
Next week, there will be a parliamentary recess in honour of Remembrance Day. Afterwards, on Monday November 17, the government will propose consideration of the motion on amendments to the Constitution Act concerning the school system in Quebec. An agreement has been reached, so it is still possible we could sit until we conclude the debate, in order to proceed with the vote on the following day. Therefore, the first vote will be taken on Tuesday, November 18.
On November 18, we will consider Bill C-11 on customs duties. That will be followed by Bill C-15, an act to amend the Canada Shipping Act, and by Bill C-18, the legislation on powers of designated customs officers. After that, we will consider Bill C-17 on Teleglobe Canada and Bill C-14 concerning the safety of water destined for human consumption.
On Wednesday, November 19, and Thursday, November 20, also pursuant to the agreement reached, we plan to consider Bill C-4, an act to amend the Canadian Wheat Board Act. Votes on that will be deferred according to whatever the whips decide at that time.
So this is the legislative agenda for the rest of this week and for the whole week following recess.
