Business of the House
Time unknown
I apologise to my colleague. As a mark of respect for the victims of the Pike River coalmine tragedy and their families, I seek leave for the House tomorrow, Thursday, 25 November, following prayers to consider a Government motion without notice, relating to the tragedy, and for the House to adjourn immediately following the consideration of that motion, notwithstanding Standing Orders 62 and 65.
The ASSISTANT SPEAKER (Eric Roy): Leave is sought for that purpose. Is there anyone opposed to that course of action? There appears not. Leave is granted.
