Mr Speaker, I believe your immediate hunch was the correct one—that is, that suspensions of standing orders are perfectly entitled to be moved but not in the middle of an item of government business or, in fact, in any other matter of business. Therefore, the suspension of standing orders can be moved after this if he wishes to do so. But the immediate question before the House is that this bill be read a third time, and that needs to be voted on before any further action can be taken.
