Mr. Speaker, on a point of order. I would like you to clarify certain rules for us. Earlier, the clerk called out the names of several Liberal members who were not standing in their place. I would like you to tell us what the rule is. Do members have to rise so their votes can be recorded or does the clerk call out their names automatically even though they are sitting down? That was the case for at least seven Liberal members earlier. Can you clarify that rule for us?
In the House of Commons on March 13th, 2000. See this statement in context.
