Yes, of course, Mr. Speaker . I actually was using the word “purity” as it r elates to boiling. And I am using an analogy here. As you look in the science books it speaks about water will boil normally at a point of 212 ˚ F and it is conti ngent on two factors: (1) the purity of the …

Yes, Mr. Speaker , I would like to refer the House to the 23rd Edition of [Erskine] May, page 394, which speaks about superseding the question and that the only way that a Motion to Adjourn with respect to a matter that is currently before the House now can be ended, the only way that the d ebate can end, …

If I can refer you to the penult imate paragraph on that page, “A motion may not be made for the adjournment of a debate, if a question for the adjournment of the House is being debated;” — which is the case here—“nor can a motion for the ad-journment of the House be made while a question for the adjournment …

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I believe my honourable and learned friend is misleading, albeit innocently, the House.

Okay. [Standing Order] 19(10) must be read, Mr. Speaker, in conjunction with [Standing Order] 19(9) which speaks to, “The mover of a motion may reply after all the other Members present have had an opportunity of addressing the House and before the question is put; and after such reply no other Member may speak except as provided for in sub-paragraph …

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Contrary to what was said previously by my dear personal friend and colleague, the Member who sits for constituency 17, MP Brown, I find that my role as a Member of Parliament is to gauge the position of my constituents. And my constituents have elected me to serve them and in c ertain matters such as …

Right, right, yes The Honourable MP Furbert’s, which is effectively (and I am paraphrasing) making a provision to be included in the Human Rights Act that speaks to the definition of marri age, and that it remain between a man and a woman as is defined under the Matrim onial Causes Act, and as read with the Marriage Act of …

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, understood. The provision that we are debating now for the inclusion in the Matrimonial Causes Act —and just give me a little bit of leeway, Mr. Speaker —is critical insofar as there is a doctrine . . . well, let me back up a minute because there has been a lot of discussion concerning judge made …

Thank you. I am sorry, Mr. Speaker. The Honourable Member is misleading the House, no doubt probably innocently. What I did say is that they must be read together. The Marriage Act is 1944; the Matrimonial Causes Act comes afterwards and provides the framework and the rules for the Marriage Act to be applicable.

With respect to this, would the Honourable Minister indicate . . . Her reference was to the Oliari case, and she also confirmed that in that Oliari case, the justices indicated that all jurisdictions have a margin of appreciation, and as such that they need to address the matter by virtue of the public i nterest and public input.
