Mr. Speaker, Procedure · 8 wordsI rise on the same point of order.Procedure Claims · 12 wordsThere are frequently comments and heckles during member statements and question period. Procedure · 9 wordsThe question is, with respect to Standing Order 16(2), ProcedureReasoning · 49 wordswhere is the line crossed? I think the reasonable expectation would be that if something interrupted the ability of the member to actually get a recording, if the sound was so loud that the intervention could not be properly heard, then I would say that violates Standing Order 16(2). Claims · 31 wordsMy understanding is that, in this particular case, that did not happen, and in fact, the recording is fine. We cannot hear the commentary of the member for Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan.¹ Reasoning · 29 wordsAs a result, I suggest that Standing Order 16(2) was not, in this case, violated and that there therefore is no need to redo the S. O. 31 statement.
