SUSPENSION OF STANDING ORDERS (Business Motion)

The Leader of the House (Mr Wong Kan Seng): Mr Speaker, Sir, I beg to move,

That, notwithstanding the Standing Orders, the proceedings on the Estimates for FY 93/94, the Supply Bill for FY 93/94 and the Supplementary Supply Bill for FY 92/93 on 10th, 11th, 12th, 15th, 16th, 17th and 18th March, 1993, be continued beyond 4.30 pm and be exempted from the provisions of Standing Order No. 1 until 5.00 pm on each day.

This will allow more Members to speak since many of them have submitted their cuts.

Question put, and agreed to.

Resolved,

That, notwithstanding the Standing Orders, the proceedings on the Estimates for FY 93/94, the Supply Bill for FY 93/94 and the Supplementary Supply Bill for FY 92/93 on 10th, 11th, 12th, 15th, 16th, 17th and 18th March, 1993, be continued beyond 4.30 pm and be exempted from the provisions of Standing Order No. 1 until 5.00 pm on each day. - [Mr Wong Kan Seng].
