Procedure of the House (Proposal 8)

Volume 732: debated on Tuesday 8 November 2011

Motion to Resolve

Moved By

To resolve that the practice of debating “motions for papers” be discontinued, and that in future all general debates not inviting the House to reach a positive decision should take place on “take note” motions, which should be short, neutrally phrased and not subject to amendment.

Motion agreed.
