Hon. Lloyd Francis
Speaker of the House
Ruling Text
In normal circumstances if a Bill based on a Ways and Means motion with spending clauses requires a Royal Recommendation, the bill should be placed on the Notice Paper with the Recommendation and then transferred to the Order Paper under Routine Proceedings where it can be introduced in the House and given first reading under our usual practice. Standing Order 66(2) requires that the Royal Recommendation be placed on notice and by allowing the Recommendation to remain on the Notice Paper for 48 hours the requirements of the Standing Order are met.
