    "content": " Hon. Speaker, I beg to move the following Procedural Motion: THAT, notwithstanding the provisions of Standing Orders 120, 122 and 126 relating to publication, procedure upon publication and First Reading of Bills and Standing Order 210(2) relating to tabling of statutory instruments, this House orders that during the period of the July/August (9th July to 2nd August 2021)— (i) should a Bill be published during the said period, or a published Bill becomes due for First Reading during the period, the Speaker shall, upon lapse of at least seven days following the publication of the Bill, the fulfilment of the provisions of Article 110(3) of the Constitution and following a determination that such Bill is of priority, forthwith refer the Bill to the relevant Committee for consideration pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 127 (committal of Bills to committees and public participation) and, upon resumption of the House, cause the Bill to be read a First Time and the Second Reading may be taken forthwith, or on such other day as the House Business Committee may determine; (ii) should any statutory instrument be transmitted for tabling before the House during the period, the Speaker shall, following a determination that the statutory instrument is of priority, forthwith refer the statutory instrument to the relevant Committee for consideration and cause the statutory instrument to be tabled in the House during its next Sitting in accordance with the provisions of section 11 of the Statutory Instruments Act (No. 3 of 2013); and (iii) should any paper be transmitted for tabling before the House during the period, the Speaker shall, following a determination that the paper is of priority, forthwith refer the paper to the relevant Committee for consideration and cause the paper to be tabled in the House during its next sitting. Hon. Speaker, this is a routine Motion. We ask the House to pass it so that we cover the processing of business when we are away. We should not lose any time as we wait for a Bill to be read the First Time then it is committed to the relevant committee. We will not be in the House then. During these three weeks of recess, any business, just for clarity to Members... If any Bill comes after seven days, it will automatically be referred to a Committee for processing. We will then take it from there when we come back. The same thing applies to the Statutory Instruments (Amendment) Bill and any Papers that need to be transmitted to a Committee. We already covered Notices from the Senate in an earlier Motion that was approved by this House. Therefore, that does not apply in this case. This is a straightforward matter that we need to cover during this period. I beg to move and ask the Leader of the Minority Party to Second."
