[Division No. 312, February 9th, 1999]

Mr. Speaker, I believe you would find unanimous consent to apply the results of the vote just taken to the main motion now before the House.

[Energy Efficiency Strategy, February 5th, 1999]

Mr. Speaker, I must confess this is not the usual practice but being Private Members' Business, whips from all parties tend to respect the independence and autonomy of Private Members' Business. Given that we have already agreed to defer votes until Tuesday of next week at the end of Government Orders, there might be agreement to further defer this vote as well.

[Business Of The House, February 4th, 1999]

Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of order on another matter. Again discussions have taken place between all parties. I believe you would find unanimous consent for the following motion with reference to Private Members' Business later today. I move:

That at the conclusion of today's debate on Motion No. 380, all questions necessary to dispose of the said motion shall be deemed put, a recorded division deemed requested and deferred until Tuesday, February 9, 1999 at the expiry of Government Orders.

[Supply, February 4th, 1999]

Mr. Speaker, I would like to give the House the assurance that discussions have taken place between all parties in the House concerning the following motion:

That at the conclusion of the present debate on the opposition motion, all questions necessary to dispose of this motion be deemed put, a recorded division deemed requested and deferred until Tuesday, February 9, 1999, at the expiry of the time provided for Government Orders.

[Fishers' Bill Of Rights, February 1st, 1999]

Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of order. I would like to begin by giving the House the assurance that discussions have taken place between all parties and the member for New Brunswick Southwest concerning the taking of the division on Bill C-302 scheduled at the conclusion of Private Members' Business today.

I believe you would find consent for the following:

That at the conclusion of today's debate on Bill C-302, all questions necessary to dispose of the motion for second reading on the said bill shall be deemed put, a recorded division deemed requested and deferred until Tuesday, February 2, 1999 at 5.15 p.m.

(Motion agreed to)

[Business Of The House, December 8th, 1998]

Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of order. I would give my assurance to the House that there have been deliberations with representatives of all parties and the member for New Brunswick Southwest regarding the taking of a division on Bill C-302 which is scheduled for the conclusion of Private Members' Business on Wednesday, December 9, 1998. I believe you would find consent for the following:

That at the conclusion of the debate on Bill C-302, Wednesday, December 9, 1998, the question shall be deemed put, a recorded division deemed requested and deferred until the expiry of the time provided for Government Orders on Tuesday, February 2, 1999.

[Privilege, December 8th, 1998]

Mr. Speaker, following the comments by the member for Saint-Hyacinthe—Bagot concerning the number of days we unfortunately have had repeated and frequent leaks, I would like to mention that on every occasion the government House leader rose and joined members from other parties in condemning these outrageous leaks we have witnessed, particularly these past few weeks. It is a real hemorrhage.

With regard to the serious problem affecting every one of us working here in a climate of mutual respect, dignity and honour, we are ready, Mr. Speaker, to cooperate with you and members from the other parties in the House to solve it.

I share the concerns expressed by the member for Saint-Hyacinthe—Bagot concerning these leaks. However, I would not go as far as accusing any particular member. I am not familiar enough with the issue to make such accusations, but I met briefly with the chairman of the Standing Committee on Finance, who agrees with us and finds this unacceptable.

It is really more than unfortunate. It is totally unacceptable that we find ourselves in this situation once more today. I think we have to commit ourselves to finding a solution to this problem as soon as we come back after the winter recess.

[Division No. 307, December 7th, 1998]

Mr. Speaker, I believe you would find consent to see the clock as being 6.30 p.m.

[Division No. 306, December 7th, 1998]

Mr. Speaker, I propose that you seek unanimous consent that members who voted on the previous motion be recorded as having voted on the motion now before the House, with Liberal members voting yea.

[Railway Safety Act, December 7th, 1998]

Mr. Speaker, I think you will find unanimous consent that those members who voted on the previous motion be recorded as having voted on the motion now before the House. Liberal members will vote no.
