Session #97 · 1981–83

Speech #970260874

And I think it is a travesty of the procedures of this House that we are going to waste an entire legislative day in the closing days of this session on a bill that is not going anywhere. The time has come for us to put our priorities on what is achievable. It seems to me that our attention should be focused on legislation that has already passed the other body and is awaiting action here. I especially refer to the regulatory reform bill. the bankruptcy act. and the immigration reform bill. They say we may not get around to these bills because of scheduling constraints. This is a travesty of the procedures of this House.
