P1788,
Amid all the discussion, we have a motion on the floor, Motion P1788/M0039.01:IntroductoryText
Current tally: Yes - 0; No - 1; Needed to pass: 34
Baker's call to vote is appended below.
Perhaps you, like me, are lost in the active discussion. Perhaps Baker or John could clarify whether the active discussion is relevant to this motion?
