"content": "On a point of order Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Allow me to be the devil’s advocate. I request the Senate Minority Leader to bear with me on this one. I am basing my argument under Standing Order No.39. When we went to the Committee of the Whole under Order No.9, we were there to do business (i), (ii) and (iii). We reported back progress on the fact that the business (i), (ii) and (iii) we went to do, had found the road block that we all agreed took place. So, that brought an end to the business listed under Order No.9. That notwithstanding, even if the argument of the Senate Minority Leader was to carry the day, it does not still take away from you, your powers under Standing Order 39(2), which I read: “Business shall be disposed of in the sequence in which it appears in the Order Paper or in such other sequence as the Speaker may, for the convenience of the Senate, direct.” If you think for the convenience of this Senate you are directing that we move to Order No.10, you are perfectly within the standing Orders."
