THE CONSTITUTION

PROPOSED RESOLUTION FOR A JOINT ADDRESS TO HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN—ORDER STANDS

On the Order:

Resuming the debate on the inquiry of the Honourable Senator Perrault, P.C., calling the attention of the Senate to the document entitled “Proposed Resolution for a Joint Address to Her Majesty the Queen respecting the Constitution of Canada”, tabled in the Senate on 6th October, 1980.—(Honourable Senator Frith).

Hon. Royce Frith (Deputy Leader of the Government): Honourable senators, we know, at least for the moment, that there will not be any intervention today on behalf of the opposition. Also we have a committee meeting at the present time and another scheduled to meet when the Senate rises. I therefore propose the adjournment of this debate on behalf of Senator Lamontagne. I defer to the honourable senator and ask that this order stand in his name until tomorrow.

Hon. Senators: Agreed.

Order stands.
