Mr. Rinfrei:
Has consideration been given?
Subtopic: MEASURE TO CONSOLIDATE, CODIFY AND AMEND EXISTING LEGISLATION
Mr. Rinfrei:
Has consideration been given?
Mr. Noseworihy:
I made my objection
clear.
Mr. Poulioi:
Excuse me, but it is not
clear at all.
Mr. Noseworihy:
It is clear to everybody

I am sure that even if a Progressive Conservative member makes a request to the government, it is patronage that must be condemned: the only thing that is right, the only thing that is honest, the only thing that can be done in the public interest, according to the hon. member and some others in his group, is what is being asked for by the C.C.F,

Mr. Paul E. Cote (Parliamentary Assistant to the Minister of Labour):
Mr. Speaker,
may I be permitted to revert to motions. On behalf of the Minister of Labour (Mr. Gregg) I desire to lay on the table one copy in English and one in French of the annual report of the Department of Labour for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 1951. The report
of the director of vocational training, for the same period, which in former years was tabled separately, has been included in the annual report.
Mr. Fournier (Hull):
Mr. Speaker, tomorrow we will go into supply and take up the estimates of the Department of Agriculture and the Department of Resources and Development.
At six o'clock the house adjourned, without question put, pursuant to standing order. 3S65
