[Members Of Parliament Retiring Allowances Act, May 4th, 1995]

Mr. Speaker, on a point of order. I wish to point out that members of the House are in the lobbies, many of them having lunch. It is lunchtime, after all. This perpetual set of quorum calls is nothing but a delay tactic on the part of the hon. member for Regina-Lumsden.

The hon. member has flown the coop and there is not a single New Democrat in the House and there has not been all morning except for him. If those people do not show up for the debate and do not participate in the House they should be defeated by their electors for their non-attendance which is perpetual.

[Questions On The Order Paper, May 4th, 1995]

Madam Speaker, I would ask that the remaining questions be allowed to stand.

[Petitions, May 4th, 1995]

Madam Speaker, I have the honour to present a petition signed by numerous residents of Ontario, most from the Kingston area, concerning Bill C-41, asking that Parliament delete certain sections from the bill.

[Committees Of The House, May 4th, 1995]

Madam Speaker, I have the honour to present the 75th report of the Standing Committee on Procedure and House Affairs on the February 28, 1995 order of reference from the House of Commons concerning the Main Estimates for the fiscal year ending March 31, 1996, in particular Vote 5 under "Parliament-House of Commons" and Vote 20 under "Privy Council-Chief Electoral Officer".

[Government Response To Petitions, May 4th, 1995]

Madam Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order 36(8), I have the honour to table in both official languages the government's response to 51 petitions.

[Lobbyists Registration Act, May 3rd, 1995]

In view of the excellent co-operation, I wonder whether it would not be possible to dispose of this bill now. I think that the debate is over.

[Lobbyists Registration Act, May 3rd, 1995]

Have you ever been lobbied?

[Questions On The Order Paper, May 2nd, 1995]

Mr. Speaker, I ask that all questions be allowed to stand.

[Government Response To Petitions, May 2nd, 1995]

Mr. Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order 36(8), I have the honour to table, in both official languages, the government's response to five petitions.

[Code Of Conduct, May 1st, 1995]

Mr. Speaker, the hon. member in her remarks indicated there were no guidelines in place. Is she aware that there is a set of conflict of interest guidelines that apply to ministers of the crown and to parliamentary secretaries in the House? Has she seen the document? If not, I would be pleased to send her a copy.
