I am actually going to correct myself. I incorrectly recognized the hon. parliamentary secretary. He ought not to have been given the chance to speak.
The Standing Orders do state that once closure has been moved in the affirmative, no member may speak more than once, even if there are amendments or subamendments, so it was the Chair's fault. I incorrectly recognized the hon. parliamentary secretary. That ought not to have happened, and that should not be the principle going forward. This is according to Standing Order 57.
Page 560 of Janse and LeBlanc, at section number 14.11, reads, “if an amendment or subamendment is proposed during the closured debate. However, a member who is recognized to speak to the main motion after the adoption of the closure motion may not speak again to any subsequent amendment or subamendment.
I just wanted to clarify the record on that one.
The hon. member for Barrie South—Innisfil is rising on a point of order.
