House of Commons committee urges strict observance of order days
A select committee reports that from the current session up to June 16 the rule granting Monday Wednesday and Friday as order days and Tuesday and Thursday as notices has been widely violated. It notes many government days occupied by notices and argues for a standing order to bar amendments on non supply days. The panel also recommends limiting advance notices to 15 or 16 days and restricting further notices beyond the fourth, while promising further views on private bills.
