by leave—I move:

That so much of the standing and sessional orders be suspended as would prevent

(1)
the Selection Committee:
(a)
meeting on or after today, if necessary by teleconference, to determine the order of consideration of matters and the times allotted for debate on each item and for each Member speaking, for private Members’ business and committee and delegation business, for Monday 18 October 2010,
(b)
communicating its determinations to all Members of the House prior to that Monday;
(c)
reporting its determinations to the House following Prayers on Monday 18 October 2010; and
(2)
the Selection Committee’s determinations to be shown in the Notice Paper for that Monday under ‘Business Accorded Priority’ for the House and Main Committee.

Question agreed to.
