(Bill reported)

[Vic Toews, Conservative, Provencher, MB]

moved that the bill be concurred in.

[Jay Hill, Conservative, Prince George—Peace River, BC]

Mr. Speaker, I think if you were to seek it, you would find unanimous consent to apply the results of the vote just taken to the motion presently before the House, with Conservative members present this evening voting in favour.

[The Speaker, Peter Milliken]

Is there unanimous consent to proceed in this way?

[Some hon. members]

Agreed.

[Michel Guimond, Bloc, Montmorency—Charlevoix—Haute-Côte-Nord, QC]

Mr. Speaker, we agree to proceed in this way. I simply wish to remind you that the Bloc members will vote against this motion.

[Karen Redman, Liberal, Kitchener Centre, ON]

Mr. Speaker, Liberals will be voting in favour.

[Yvon Godin, NDP, Acadie—Bathurst, NB]

Mr. Speaker, the NDP members will vote against this motion.

[The Speaker, Peter Milliken]

There is a difficulty created by the point of order. The chief government whip asked that the vote on the motion last before the House be applied to the motion now before the House. I do not believe there were any votes from one party on that motion.

The chief whip of the Liberal Party has asked that the Liberals vote yea. Do we go back to one where there were votes and count them, or do we recount? Is it agreed that we go back to some previous vote?

[Some hon. members]

Agreed.

No.

(The House divided on the motion, which was agreed to on the following division:)

Vote #139

[The Speaker, Peter Milliken]

I declare the motion carried.

The member for Portneuf—Jacques-Cartier wishes to raise a point of order.

[André Arthur, Independent, Portneuf—Jacques-Cartier, QC]

Mr. Speaker, I apologize but I wanted to ensure that my vote in favour of the motion was recorded.

[The Speaker, Peter Milliken]

Is there agreement to change the vote from the nay recorded to a yea in this case?

[Some hon. members]

Agreed.

No.

[Vic Toews, Conservative, Provencher, MB]

moved that the bill be read the third time and passed.

[Jay Hill, Conservative, Prince George—Peace River, BC]

Mr. Speaker, hopefully you might find unanimous consent of the members in the chamber to apply the results from the previous vote to the vote currently before the House.
