Moved:

That the fourth report of the Standing Senate Committee on Human Rights tabled on June 16, 2021, be adopted and that, pursuant to rule 12-24(1), the Senate request a complete and detailed response from the government, with the Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness being identified as minister responsible for responding to the report, in consultation with the Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada, the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance, the Minister of Indigenous Services, the Minister of Crown-Indigenous Relations, the Minister for Women and Gender Equality and Rural Economic Development, as well as the Minister of Diversity and Inclusion and Youth.

Do you have a point of order, Senator Martin?

No. I was going to take adjournment.

It is moved by the Honourable Senator Martin, seconded by the Honourable Senator Batters, that further debate be adjourned until the next sitting of the Senate. All those who oppose the motion please say “no.”

Those in favour of the motion to adjourn the debate and who are in the Senate Chamber will please say “yea.”

Those opposed to the motion and who are in the Senate Chamber will please say “nay.”

I believe the yeas have it.

I see two senators rising. Do the government liaison and the Opposition Whip have agreement on the length of a bell?

Now.

It was moved by the Honourable Senator Martin, seconded by the Honourable Senator Batters, that further debate be adjourned until the next sitting of the Senate.
