December 6, 1999
Hon. Gilbert Parent
Motions in amendment: admissibility; motion to append a treaty; reconsideration of decision
The Speaker: I am now ready to rule on a point of order raised by the House Leader for the Official Opposition on Thursday, December 2, 1999, concerning the acceptability of report stage motions...
The Speaker allowed report stage motions to append the Nisga'a Final Agreement to Bill C-9, despite procedural arguments that they were unnecessary, provided the motions were corrected to reference the official Sessional Papers.
