Summary
EditThe majority voted in favour of an amendment to the usual second reading motion, which is "that the bill be read a second time" (parliamentary jargon for agreeing with the main idea of the bill). That means that words below will replace the usual ones.
Amendment text
Omit all words after “That”, substitute:
(a) further consideration of the bills be postponed until Tuesday, 26 November 2024; and
(b) on Tuesday, 26 November 2024:
(i) the bills be called on prior to the first order of government business,
(ii) the questions on all remaining stages of the bills be put at 1 pm,
(iii) divisions may take place between 1.30 pm and 2 pm until consideration of the bills has concluded, and
(iv) paragraph (b)(ii) operate as a limitation of debate under standing order 142.
