Submitted by vanideal on

ALLAN MACMASTER: Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of privilege.

Earlier today the Chair of the Law Amendments Committee violated the privilege of the Leader of the Opposition by attempting to silence him and stifle his freedom of speech as a member of this Legislature.

When Legislative Counsel advised the Chair of this error, he was not moved. Not only were the Chair's actions a breach of the long-established Rules of this House, but they also went against precedent.

Submitted by vanideal on

MR. SPEAKER: Order, please. On the matter of the point of privilege, after consulting with the Clerk and considering comments from both sides of the House, it is my interpretation that the Premier earlier in the media scrum was merely stating his position and his government's position, but there were no comments made as to how he was instructing anybody to vote.
