I move:
That so much of the standing and sessional orders be suspended as would prevent the following the following from occurring in relation to business for today:
(1) government business taking priority until 1.30 pm;
(2) the Prime Minister immediately moving a motion relating to Hamas attacks on Israel and ongoing conflict;
(3) debate on the motion to proceed immediately, with the Leader of the Opposition to speak for equal time as the Prime Minister and all other speeches being limited to ten minutes;
(4) questions being put on any amendments to the motion and on the Prime Minister's motion at no later than 1.15 pm;
(5) statements relating to Hamas attacks on Israel and ongoing conflict being permitted at a later hour;
(6) following the presentation of documents after Question Time, private Members' business continuing for a maximum of 60 minutes, in accordance with the Selection Committee's determinations, after which government business to resume; and
(7) any variation to this arrangement being made only on a motion moved by a Minister.
Question agreed to.
