19. Committees of the Whole House

Proceedings and decisions taken in a Committee of the Whole are not recorded in the Journals. ^[192]  Because the House is not officially informed of the proceedings in a Committee of the Whole until the Committee has reported, note is only made in the Journals when the House goes into a Committee of the Whole, when the Committee reports progress and when the Committee reports back a bill with or without amendment. If amendments are adopted to a bill in a Committee of the Whole, they are printed in the Journals when the Committee reports the bill back to the House. ^[193] 

Proceedings in a Committee of the Whole are recorded verbatim in the Debates of the House. In addition, an audio-visual record (an electronic Hansard) of proceedings in a Committee of the Whole is available with the recorded proceedings of the House of Commons.
