John Todd Keewatin Central

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker: Whereas it is required by Rule 86 that a standing committee on public accounts be appointed; now therefore, I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Mackenzie Delta, Mr. Richard Nerysoo, that Mr. Arngna'naaq, Mr. Arvaluk, Mr. Bernhardt, Mr. Gargan, Mr. Koe, Mr. Pudlat and Mr. Zoe be appointed as Members of the standing committee on public accounts; and further, that Mr. Dent, Mr. Pudlat and Mr. Todd be named alternates to the standing committee on public accounts.

The Speaker Michael Ballantyne

One problem. Before I rule the motion in order I see that Mr. Pudlat is on the committee and also as an alternate to the committee. Was there a mistake? I defer this motion and will go to another motion, and we will get that clarified.

Motions. Mr. Lewis, please.
