Chapter 8 - Conduct
of proceedings
Questions
to senators concerning business
At the time provided for questions, in
addition to questions to ministers concerning public affairs and to committee
chairs, questions may be asked of senators concerning business of which they
have charge (SO 72(1)). As such
questions may not anticipate debate on a matter on the Notice Paper (SO 73(2)), they are in
effect confined to asking senators when they intend that items of business
should be dealt with, and similar questions not going to the merits of the
business. (See also Chapter 6, Senators, under questions to senators.)
