Colleagues, I find this to be a serious point. With your indulgence, I would like to inform myself more. I am aware of the standing order as pointed out by all three parties that have intervened in this.
I just want to look a little further at the citation the hon. member for Pictou—Antigonish—Guysborough takes from Beauchesne's sixth edition. I am going to reserve judgment and I will come back to the House and make a decision on this.
