by leave—I move:

That so much of the standing and sessional orders be suspended as would prevent the Selection Committee’s determination for the Federation Chamber today in relation to the Marriage Amendment Bill 2012 being varied to provide for speech time limits of 10 minutes for all Members speaking (minimum number of proposed Members speaking = 15 x 10 minutes).

Question agreed to.
