Official Languages committee  We are now voting on the following question: “Is the Chair’s ruling sustained?”

Official Languages committee  Actually, the debate is continuing because Mr. Serré wants to speak to the amendment. We cannot vote. Mr. Godin had his turn, but Mr. Serré wishes to speak as well. He raised a point of order, but it should have been his turn after Mr. Godin to propose a subamendment.

Official Languages committee  He wishes to speak to the amendment.

Official Languages committee  I looked at everyone's list of witnesses and where they live. Several are in western or eastern Canada. That's the main reason why the amount is higher for this study. That's what I based my budget on.

Official Languages committee  It's Ms. Enayeh, a witness, Mr. Chair.

Official Languages committee  The vote is on adjourning the debate.

Official Languages committee  You are voting on adjourning the debate that is underway.

Official Languages committee  If the committee adopts the motion to adjourn, it ends the debate, and it goes back to what it was doing before, that is, questioning witnesses.

Official Languages committee  My clock says 5 minutes and 57 seconds.

Official Languages committee  He's here, Mr. Chair.

Official Languages committee  You'll see it it on the second page of your notes, Mr. Chair.

Official Languages committee  Mr. Serré's amendment would amend Mr. Généreux's motion by deleting “as well as the Minister of Official Languages”.

Official Languages committee  Excuse me, Mr. Chair, but does the motion carry?

Official Languages committee  In fact, Mr. Boulerice has been replaced by Mr. Johns.
