Madam Speaker: I have two rulings for the House.

The honourable member for The Maples (Mr. Kowalski) on May 10, 1999, raised a point of order concerning comments made by the honourable member for Transcona (Mr. Reid). It was alleged that the comments imputed unworthy motives to the honourable member for Inkster (Mr. Lamoureux). What the honourable member for Transcona had said was: "I am not quite clear why the member for Inkster is so sensitive, but perhaps he has an ulterior political motive in mind by taking the steps that he has just done."

I am ruling that there was no point of order. After perusing Hansard, in my opinion, the honourable member for Transcona did not impute unworthy motives.

On May 13, 1999, I took under advisement a point of order raised by the honourable Leader of the official opposition (Mr. Doer).

I had cautioned the honourable Leader of the official opposition about words he had used in Question Period just prior to his raising a point of order. I had cautioned the member only and had not specifically requested that the words be withdrawn. Therefore, the honourable Leader of the official opposition did not have a point of order.
