Hon. Jeanne Sauvé
Speaker of the House
Ruling Text
These votes are based on the Appropriation Acts of 1973 and 1975. Therefore, the two votes are being presented to the House in proper form. What is important is that the votes must be presented in a clear manner within the Estimates, and the grouping of these votes under a given title or heading is of no importance.

"The grouping of votes within the Estimates is not procedurally significant, provided the individual votes are presented clearly and are founded on the authority of an Appropriation Act."
AI Summary
