    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. As I move this Motion, I appeal to the Members that if we do not have these Motions in place, we will not regulate how business is carried on in the House and so we will not meet. It is very important that we, at least, set the basis. I will request Members that we keep in the House so that we regulate the way we will carry on business for the rest of the year. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to move the following Procedural Motion: THAT, notwithstanding the provisions of Standing Order 97(4), this House orders that each speech in a debate on Bills sponsored by a Committee, the Hon. Leader of the Majority Party or the Hon. Leader of the Minority Party be limited as follows: A maximum of 45 minutes for the Mover, in moving and 15 minutes in replying, a maximum of 30 minutes for the Chairperson of the relevant Committee (if the Bill is not sponsored by the relevant Committee), and a maximum of 10 minutes for any other Member speaking, except the Hon. Leader of the Majority Party and the Hon. Leader of the Minority Party, who shall be limited to a maximum of 15 minutes each (if the Bill is not sponsored by either of them); and that priority in speaking be accorded to the Hon. Leader of the Majority Party, the Hon. Leader of the Minority Party and the Chairperson of the relevant Departmental Committee in that order. Hon. Deputy Speaker, this will regulate the timing that will be given to the individual Members to contribute to any of the Bills that are sponsored by the parties and committees. This is in tandem with what we have been doing. I move and ask the Hon. Leader of the Minority Party to second."
