Of course, she recognizes that Standing Order 52 requires not only that a matter be specific and important, even grave, but that it be urgent that Parliament deal with it immediately and so forth. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5544683\" data-originallang=\"en\">While there is no question that this matter is very important in interest, I do not find that it meets the exigencies of the strict wording of the Standing Order.</p>",

Je n'ai toutefois pas besoin de lui rappeler que, selon ce que dit l'article 52 du R\u00e8glement, pour que le Parlement se penche imm\u00e9diatement sur une question, celle-ci doit \u00eatre non seulement d\u00e9termin\u00e9e et importante, voire grave, mais son \u00e9tude doit aussi s\u2019imposer d\u2019urgence. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5544683\" data-originallang=\"en\">M\u00eame si je ne doute pas un seul instant de l'importance ni de l'int\u00e9r\u00eat de cette question, je consid\u00e8re qu'elle ne remplit pas les exigences strictes qui sont \u00e9nonc\u00e9es dans le R\u00e8glement.</p>"
