Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, perhaps we should have legal counsel confirm this but section 6(2), as I understand it, is simply restating the situation as it currently exists. In other words, right now this Legislature has the inherent right to discipline Members for any reason. I think that is what section 6(2) is restating; that, in fact, a Legislature always has the right to discipline its Members.

If a Legislature were to choose to discipline a Member for a breach of Bill C-68, then the Legislature could do that. But that could happen, Mr. Chairman, if we pass Bill 32 or not.
