Accordingly, Bill C-484, An Act to amend the Criminal Code (injuring or causing the death of an unborn child while committing an offence), was read the second time and referred to the Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights.


Pursuant to Standing Order 93(1), the House resumed consideration of the motion of Ms. Thibault (Rimouski-Neigette—Témiscouata—Les Basques), seconded by Mr. Pearson (London North Centre), — That, in the opinion of the House, the government should review the Old Age Security program with a view to: (a) reduce the program’s operational costs by ceasing to pay benefits that subsequently have to be repaid; (b) allocate these savings first to single, divorced and widowed Guaranteed Income Savings recipients, specifically to people who did not have an opportunity to prepare for their retirement; (c) improve the Guaranteed Income Savings benefits for elderly single, divorced and widowed individuals; and (d) increase the other income threshold so that Guaranteed Income Savings recipients may receive the equivalent of 15 hours per week of work at minimum wage in their province of residence without penalty; (Private Members' Business M-383)

The House proceeded to the taking of the deferred recorded division on the amendment of Mr. Silva (Davenport), seconded by Mr. Pearson (London North Centre), — That the motion be amended by deleting sections (a) and (b) from the text.
