I was pointing out that in the first two debate periods in this debate there is no provision for questions and comments. On the minister's debate, through unanimous consent, there was a provision for a five minute extension. All we are asking to do is split time, not to extend debate. There are no questions and comments in this period. We have requested a splitting of time for the member for Skeena.
In the House of Commons on March 5th, 1999. See this statement in context.
