I move:

That so much of standing orders be suspended as would prevent:

(1)      the Selection Committee:

        (a)      communicating its determinations in relation to the selection of items of private Members’ business and committee and delegation business for Monday 10 October 2016, and the allocation of time, to all Members of the House prior to that Monday; and

        (b)      reporting its determinations to the House following Prayers on Monday 10 October 2016;

(2)      the Selection Committee’s determinations being shown in the Notice Paper for that Monday under ‘Business Accorded Priority’ for the House and Federation Chamber;

(3)      in the absence of a fully constituted Selection Committee, the arrangements for private Members’ business for Monday 10 October 2016 provided for in paragraphs (1) and (2) of this resolution being determined by the Speaker, Chief Government Whip and Chief Opposition Whip and reports of such determinations being treated as having been adopted by the House when they are presented; and

(4)      in the absence of a Chair having been appointed to the Petitions Committee, the arrangements for private Members’ business for Monday, 10 October 2016 to commence at 10am.

Question agreed to.
