I thank the hon. member for Carleton for his point of order and his rather thorough research of the matter.
The member will know that matters that are dealt with at the standing committee level, as he pointed out rightly himself, are matters that are taken up by the committee itself.
He may also know there is a mechanism by which committees can refer business to the House for debate and or consideration when the committee in fact makes a report of such disagreements that may occur in the course of its deliberations.
Normally, the chair is reluctant to adjudicate matters here in the House that pertain to committee business until such time as a report has come from that committee to the House for its consideration.
I take the matter under advisement and we will get back to the member if necessary, but he may want to go back and consider in committee itself whether such a report could be provided, and then the House would have a mechanism by which to consider the matter.
