"Mr President, this is a procedural motion. Yesterday, when we debated this issue, I asked the President whether we might hold the debate in another way and perhaps obtain a more lively debate by my talking for four minutes and subsequently rounding off the debate with a further minute of my speaking time. The President was very obliging and said that we were perfectly entitled to do that, and the whole matter passed off splendidly. My question to you, Mr President, is as to whether you will instruct the Sittings Directorate that this is in actual fact a procedure that can be used here in Parliament and that it is supported by the College of Presidents with a view to bringing about a more lively debate. When I asked the Sittings Directorate whether this could be done, they in fact said that the debate could not be conducted in this way. I would therefore ask you to instruct the Sittings Directorate that this is a method of proceeding that we use here in Parliament. It gives rise to livelier debates, and there is nothing in the Rules of Procedure to prevent this approach from being used."@en1
