November 18, 1992 (34th Parliament, 3rd Session)

Hon. Gerald S. Merrithew (Minister of Veterans Affairs):

Madam Speaker, it is my understanding that under Standing Order 52 an application is made to the Speaker as to the propriety, the correctness, the timeliness and the need for an emergency debate. It would seem to me that is the route it should go, and that we should await the Speaker's ruling on that particular question by the hon. member for Carleton

Charlotte.
