The Speaker delivered the following ruling:-

On Tuesday, June 1, 2004 the Member for Burlington (Mr. Jackson) raised a point of order bringing to the attention of the House his view that the printed Hansard for Thursday, May 20, 2004 contained a correction that caused him to question the degree to which statements made in the House can be altered on their way to the final version of Hansard. Specifically, the Member queried whether there have been any changes in the policy relating to the ability of a Member to alter Hansard.

I want to deal first with the request for an explanation of what the Member for Burlington referred to as "changes in the ability for members to change what is put in Hansard". The very simple answer is that there has been no change. Hansard continues, as it has in the past, to act upon Members' requests only in the case that Hansard has actually made a mistake in the transcription. Hansard does not allow Members to make corrections to their own remarks otherwise.

In the case at hand, it was pointed out that on the date in question the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing (Mr. Gerretsen) used the phrase "What we are doing couldn't be further from the truth", but that in the printed version he is recorded as having said "What the member is suggesting couldn't be further from the truth." I have checked into this matter and find that both phrases were used in succession by the Minister and that Hansard did edit the remarks to remove the first phrase.

The editing practices of our Hansard Branch are derived from Westminster practice and call upon editors to make certain corrections in certain circumstances. Two of the cases where Hansard will edit are: false starts and repetitions; and references that are obvious misstatements understood by all to have been just that. In this case, the statement made by the Minister was judged by the Hansard editors to be: i) a false start after which the Member stopped and rephrased his opening remarks, and ii) a verbal mistake mentally corrected by those listening. The Member for Burlington made reference to the latter of these in his point of order and I would venture to say that the reaction by many Members in the House at the time of the `misstatement' would confirm it to have been understood as such.

As I am sure Members can appreciate, the editing of Hansard requires the exercise of a great deal of judgement in converting speech to text. This ensures that the text in its final form is clear and comprehensible. Such judgement is exercised regularly according to established policy and practice and without influence from anyone. This, I believe, is as it should be and as all Members would expect. In the case at hand, the Hansard editors employed their usual standards within the bounds of our usual practice. There have been no changes to any of the policies and procedures governing Hansard editing and the House can be assured that Hansard remains as always apolitical and impartial in its reporting.

In closing I want to indicate that next week Members will find on their desks a one page document summarizing Hansard editing conventions which may assist in better understanding what those conventions are.
