The Speaker delivered the following ruling:- Yesterday, the Member for Toronto Danforth (Ms. Churley) rose on a point of order concerning Ministerial Statements. Specifically, the Member referred to Standing Order 35(c). The Member contended that the statement made by the Minister of the Environment did not correspond with the advance copy of the written statement provided to her and that the inconsistency was substantial in nature, thus impacting on the Member's ability to respond appropriately. The Member was joined in her assertion by the Member for Nickel Belt (Ms. Martel) and the Member for Nepean Carleton (Mr. Baird), both of whom claimed that the inconsistency between written and oral Ministerial Statements had in fact occurred on other occasions. The Government House Leader (Mr. Duncan) also spoke to this point. It will likely not come as a surprise to Members that this issue has been raised previously in this House. Speaker Edighoffer noted in 1990 that the Speaker does not receive a copy of Ministerial Statements and is therefore unable to follow along. On October 19, 1992, Speaker Warner added to that when he stated the following: "I would add that, even if the Speaker were required to receive copies of written statements, it would not be her or his responsibility to determine whether a discrepancy is substantial in nature or whether it is an embellishment of no consequence. "While the powers of the Speaker in this regard are circumscribed, surely it is in keeping with the spirit of the Standing Order that ministers adhere closely to the written text when making statements so as to avoid possible misunderstandings. It may be that on occasion, changing circumstances require that the oral statement differs in some respect from the written statement. In such a situation, I would expect that any minister would wish to advise the House of the departure from the prepared text."


The matter was again raised on June 22, 2001 at which time Speaker Carr concurred with the opinion of the previous Speakers. I am inclined to agree as well with my predecessors. I do not receive copies of Ministerial Statements and thus am not in a position to determine if the text is followed precisely, and as Speaker Warner said, even if I did receive copies, it would not be up to me to determine whether discrepancies are substantial or inconsequential. Having said that, I would add that I expect Ministers to follow the Standing Orders and that if of necessity there are consequential changes to the text of a Ministerial Statement they advise the House at the outset of the statement itself.
