Mr. Speaker, I intend to of course demonstrate all the important legislation that we are going to be passing over the next few days. The Chair will know that it is all very important.
This afternoon we will complete the report stage of Bill C-43, the very important piece of legislation respecting the revenue agency. Division bells will be held on Monday at 5 p.m., pursuant to an order of the House made yesterday.
Tomorrow we shall consider the amendment made by the Senate to Bill C-25, the National Defence Act amendment. I understand that this is changing only one or two words. This will be followed by report stage and third reading of Bill C-57, the Nunavut courts legislation and by reports stage and if possible third reading of Bill C-58, the railway safety bill. I understand that there are negotiations right now proceeding on Bill C-59, the insurance companies legislation, and I will get back to that later because so far they are not complete.
On Monday we will begin with a motion to approve the appointment of the commissioner of official languages. We would then attempt to complete any business left over from Friday if such is the case. We would following this deal with Bill C-35 respecting imports. There are also ongoing discussions concerning Bill S-21, the anti-corruption convention. I indicated that there were also discussions on Bill C-59. Finally I do believe that there is consent to do the report stage and third reading of Bill C-49, the native land claims bill. Hopefully we can accomplish all this business on Monday.
On Tuesday, we will consider the third reading of Bill C-43.
Next Wednesday and Thursday the House will hold the annual pre-budget debate.
