On motion of Mr. Martindale, the Report of the Committee was received. ______________________________
During Oral Questions, Mr. Speaker interjected and requested that the words "his kickback scheme" spoken by the Honourable Member for Steinbach be withdrawn.
Mr. Goertzen withdrew his remarks. ______________________________
Following Oral Questions, Mr. Speaker made the following ruling:
Following the daily Prayer on Monday, June 7, 2004, the Honourable Member for River Heights rose on a matter of privilege regarding a government motion that appeared on the Notice Paper. At the conclusion of his remarks, the Honourable Member for River Heights moved “THAT this serious matter now be referred to the Committee on Legislative Affairs and then be reported to the House.” The Honourable Government House Leader, the Honourable Member for Inkster, and the Honourable Member for Fort Whyte offered advice to the Chair on this matter. I took the matter under advisement in order to consult the procedural authorities.
There are two conditions that must be satisfied in order for the matter raised to be ruled in order as a prima facie case of privilege. First, was the issue raised at the earliest opportunity, and second, has sufficient evidence been provided to demonstrate that the privileges of the House have been breached, in order to warrant putting the matter to the House.
Regarding the first condition of timeliness, the Honourable Member for River Heights asserted that he did raise the matter at the earliest opportunity, and I will accept the word of the Honourable Member.
Regarding the second condition, I must advise the House that Joseph Maingot advises on page 223 of the second edition of Parliamentary Privilege in Canada, that “a breach of the Standing Orders or a failure to follow an established practice would invoke a point of order rather than a question of privilege. Allegations of fact amounting to allegations that proper procedures were not followed are by their very nature matters of order, and even if valid, would not receive priority in debate as would a prima facie case of privilege.” Also, Speaker Rocan ruled on March 12, 1993 that there were precedents from both the Canadian House of Commons and the Manitoba Legislature that would allow for Standing Orders to be suspended or amended by motion on notice.
A motion has been placed on Notice, and is now on the Order Paper, that would outline House business for this week, as well as outlining sitting dates for the upcoming year. The placement of this motion on the Notice and Order Papers is not a prima facie case of privilege, and it will be up to the House to debate and ultimately decide the disposition of the motion. I therefore rule that there is no prima facie case of privilege. ______________________________
Pursuant to Rule 26(1), Messrs. Dyck and Nevakshonoff, Mrs. Stefanson, Ms. Korzeniowski and Mr. Cummings made Members' Statements. ______________________________
Prior to Orders of the Day, Mr. Lamoureux rose on a Matter of Urgent Public Importance and moved:
THAT under Rule 36(1) the ordinary business of the House be set aside to discuss a Matter of Urgent Public Importance, namely, the impact of the rule changes from 2002 and subsequent impact it has had on the House.
And Mr. Lamoureux, Hon. Mr. Mackintosh and Mr. Loewen having spoken to the urgency of the motion,
WHEREUPON Mr. Speaker ruled as follows:
There are two conditions to be satisfied for this matter to proceed.
The first condition has been met, in that I did receive the proper notice from the Honourable Member of this motion.
The second condition is that debate on the matter is urgent and that there is no other reasonable opportunity to raise the matter.
Although I understand that this is a serious issue about which the Member is genuinely concerned, I am not satisfied that the public interest will suffer if this issue is not debated today. I must therefore rule the motion of the Honourable Member for Inkster out of order, because I do not believe that it warrants setting aside the regular business of the house. ______________________________
Hon. Mr. Mackintosh moved:
THAT the following Sessional Orders apply despite any other rule or practice of this House:
