"content": "Hon. Speaker, you have given us very good direction. There are a number of issues. When a Bill is from the Senate, the Leader of the Majority Party or the Leader of the Minority Party is the one who deals with it here. How does a Chair of a Committee take over a Private Member’s Bill of the other House? The Chair needs to withdraw this Bill and then we substitute it next week with a Motion. If the Motion is rejected, we go to mediation. Once we go to mediation, there are certain aspects the Member wants which are not in the Agriculture, Fisheries and Food Authority (AFFA) Act. Those issues, including the packaging of potatoes, can be dealt with at the mediation and then the Bill is brought back with amendments from the Mediation Committee. In order for us to move forward and deal with other urgent matters, I ask the Chair to withdraw the Bill and then ask the House Business Committee (HBC) to give priority to the Report next week for us to debate either way. Your guidance was very clear, Hon. Speaker."
