Order of business
Opening
1Prayers
Every sitting opens with prayers. The House is not formally in session until they have been said, and no business may be taken before them.
2Approval of the Votes and Proceedings
The House approves the record of its previous sitting. This is the moment at which a member may object that the record is wrong, so it is the point at which the official account of the last sitting becomes settled.
Petitions
3Presentation of Public Petitions
Members formally present petitions sent to them by citizens. A petition presented here is referred to the Committee on Public Petitions, which may invite the petitioner and the agency complained of to a hearing.
Reports
- 4Presentation of Committee Reports
Closing
5Adjournment
The House adjourns to its next sitting day. The House rises when the business before it is finished or on a motion to adjourn, so there is no fixed hour at which a sitting ends.
Documents
The list of business the House will take, published before the sitting. This sitting is demonstration data, so no file is served here; in production this links to the document the House itself publishes.
The National Assembly’s published Order PapersThe record of what the House actually did. It is produced after the sitting rises, so it does not exist for a sitting that has not yet happened.
Document links are placeholders in this demonstration build.
