I thank the hon. member for Joliette for bringing that to the attention of the Chair.
The motion which was originally put by the member for Mercier included three parts. There was some discussion as to whether or not the motion would be deemed acceptable if it were amended by the member to remove the third part. To do so we would have had to have had agreement of all hon. members because the motion was changed for technical reasons. That agreement was not forthcoming. Therefore the motion was out of order. The previous ruling that the motion was out of order will not be changed. The motion remains out of order.
