Military Justice System Modernization Act

The House dealt with a procedural matter about Bill C-11, the Military Justice System Modernization Act, which would amend the National Defence Act to change parts of the military justice system, including how certain military justice officials are appointed, and to move certain sexual offences alleged to have been committed in Canada out of the military system. Stephen Fuhr said the parties could not agree on how long debate at report stage and third reading should last, so the government would move a motion to set a time limit on the debate.Written by AI from the debate.

“The parties could not agree on how long to debate the military justice bill. The government will soon move a motion to set a time limit on the debate.”
Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, unfortunately, an agreement could not be reached under the provisions of Standing Order 78(1) or 78(2) with respect to the report stage and third reading stage of Bill C-11, an act to amend the National Defence Act and other acts. Under the provisions of Standing Order 78(3), I give notice that a minister of the Crown will propose at the next sitting a motion to allot a specific number of days or hours for the consideration and disposal of the proceedings at the respective stages of said bill.
