Point of Order

June 3, 2021


On a point of order, Madam Speaker. Correct me if I’m wrong, but Senator Plett is not on debate on an item, so I’m not sure he can move to adjourn the Senate.

Senator Plett [ - ]

Your Honour, I think Senator Moncion should read the Rules of the Senate of Canada. Any senator can move the adjournment of the debate.

I’ve asked this question on a number of occasions of the clerks and it has always been a debatable question, so I would like an exact ruling on this. If I’m wrong, Senator Plett, I will bow to the rules.
