Mr. Santos, Chairperson of the Committee of Supply, reported progress having been made on June 13, 2000.

In the section of the Committee of Supply sitting in the Chamber, on Tuesday June 13, 2000, considering the estimates of the Department of Agriculture and Food, a ruling of the Chair, respecting a motion moved by Mr. Penner (Emerson) which was found to be out of order, was challenged:

A voice vote was held, whereupon a counted vote was requested and Members sitting in Room 254 and Room 255 returned to the Chamber. A counted vote was held, which sustained the ruling (26-18).

Report was received and the Committee of Supply obtained leave to sit again.
