Citizenship and Immigration committee  Motions to adjourn the debate, as well as motions to adjourn the meeting, are in order if a member has the floor. Members may not move such motions on a point of order, but if they have the floor for debate, then a motion to adjourn the meeting or a motion to adjourn the debate i

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Thank you, Madam Chair. As members will probably know, the meeting schedule is agreed to by the whips. I give that to you just as a point of information. However, strictly speaking, the rule is that the committee meeting continues until a motion to adjourn is adopted.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  The question is on the motion by Mr. Dhaliwal to adjourn the debate. (Motion negatived: nays 6; yeas 5)

Citizenship and Immigration committee  I'm just checking now. One moment, please. In the last minutes, we have not received an email from Ms. Dancho's office.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Yes, of course.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  I'll ask the committee assistant to take a look at all of our correspondence and confirm with me. I'll advise the chair directly. When we find it, we'll distribute it without delay to the committee. We already have instructions to do that. We'll make sure it goes out the door imm

Citizenship and Immigration committee  I hope to. Members may place motions on notice. Until the election of the chair there is no notice period, because requiring a notice period is a routine motion that the committee adopts for itself.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  I will call a recorded vote. (Motion agreed to: yeas 6; nays 5 [See Minutes of Proceedings])

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Yes. Our office will contact the office of Ms. Martinez Ferrada and request the text of the motion. However, when the committee is considering committee business, members may move motions to propose studies without notice.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  As soon as I have it, we'll distribute it to all members directly, without delay.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Thank you so much, Madam Chair. Over the summer, the practice of committees was to follow two different procedures: one during public meetings and one in camera meetings. During public meetings, all staff could use the phone lines to listen to proceedings live. That way they wo

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Yes. Thank you very much, Madam Chair. Traditionally, the limit of the expenses is due to travel. It does not cost us more to have additional witness participating by Zoom. Were we, however, to use a video conferencing studio, for example, if Internet connections were poor in a

Citizenship and Immigration committee  To your clarification, Ms. Kwan, it is our established practice that the chair has the right, on a case-by-case basis, to expand the number of witnesses for extenuating reasons. Even if the committee decides to set a limit, be it two, three, four or whatever it is, if there is so

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Okay, noted. Ms. Martinez Ferrada is nominating Christine Normandin for second vice-chair. Is it the pleasure of the committee to adopt the motion? We have unanimous consent. (Motion agreed to) I declare Madame Normandin the duly elected second vice-chair. (Motion agreed to)
