House Business

Hon. Jim Ernst (Government House Leader): Madam Speaker, I have two announcements with respect to House business. Firstly, Tuesday, May 14, will be Opposition Day. Under our new rules, there will be three Opposition Days during any given session, and notice has been given of the motion by the member for Thompson (Mr. Ashton). It is contained in the Order Paper, and that will be the motion that is debated during Opposition Day on Tuesday, May 14.

On Friday, May 10, between 9:30 a.m. and 12 noon, the Committee on Public Accounts will meet in Room 254 in order to give continuing consideration to the matters before it.

I move, seconded by the Minister of Finance (Mr. Stefanson), that Madam Speaker do now leave the Chair and the House resolve itself into a committee to consider of the Supply to be granted to Her Majesty.

Motion agreed to, and the House resolved itself into a committee to consider of the Supply to be granted to Her Majesty, with the honourable member for La Verendrye (Mr. Sveinson) in the Chair for the Department of Education and Training; and the honourable member for St. Norbert (Mr. Laurendeau) in the Chair for the Department of Health.
