The latter, by the way, is envisioned as a 30,000 sq. meter underground complex. The place where the elm tree sits is not above the visitor complex centre; the elm enclave will be used as staging area for construction on the site, which is expected to last 13 years. </span></span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=defanged88-msonormal style='margin:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;font-variant-ligatures: normal;font-variant-caps: normal;orphans: 2;text-align:start;widows: 2;-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;text-decoration-style: initial;text-decoration-color: initial;background-image:initial;background-position:initial;background-size: initial;background-repeat:initial;background-attachment:initial;background-origin: initial;background-clip: initial;word-spacing:0px'><span class=size><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Cambria",serif;color:#212121;background:white'> </span></span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=defanged88-msonormal style='margin:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;font-variant-ligatures: normal;font-variant-caps: normal;orphans: 2;text-align:start;widows: 2;-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;text-decoration-style: initial;text-decoration-color: initial;background-image:initial;background-position:initial;background-size: initial;background-repeat:initial;background-attachment:initial;background-origin: initial;background-clip: initial;word-spacing:0px'><span class=size><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Cambria",serif;color:#212121;background:white'>Five Liberal MPs on the House of Commons Procedures and House Affairs Committee voted against a motion that would have put a further moratorium on destruction of the centenary elm that sits to the east of Centre Block on Parliament Hill. Four opposition members voted in favour of the motion, put forward by Randall Garrison, a New Democrat. The motion said: "I move that this committee request a moratorium on the removal of the centenary elm and construction activity that would compromise its health until the end of June to allow for a further evaluation of the health of the tree and of alternate plans that would allow for its long-term survival."</span></span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=defanged88-msonormal
