Sitting Suspended to Await Royal Assent

June 23, 2022


Hon. Raymonde Gagné (Legislative Deputy to the Government Representative in the Senate)

Honourable senators, with leave of the Senate and notwithstanding rule 5-5(j), I move: That the sitting be suspended to await the announcement of Royal Assent, to reassemble at the call of the chair with a five‑minute bell.

The Hon. the Speaker [ + ]

If you do not give leave, you must say nay. The sitting is therefore suspended to await receipt of a message from the Crown concerning Royal Assent.

The bells will start ringing five minutes before the sitting resumes.
