Honourable senators, with leave of the Senate and notwithstanding rule 5-5(j), I move:

That, at the start of the sitting of Friday, March 22, 2019, the Senate deal with any message from the House of Commons concerning an appropriation bill;

That, if such a message has not been received at the start of the sitting, the sitting be suspended to await the receipt of such a message or information provided by the Government Representative about such a message, with the bells to ring for five minutes before the sitting resumes;

That, after the Senate has dealt with the message and any business flowing from it, the sitting be suspended to await the receipt of a message from the Crown concerning Royal Assent, with the bells to ring for five minutes before the sitting resumes;

That, except as provided in the next paragraph, after the receipt of a message from the Crown concerning Royal Assent, the Senate adjourn to the next sitting day, as provided for either pursuant to order made under the next paragraph or the provisions of the Rules, as the case may be;

That at any point during the sitting the Government Representative be authorized to move, without notice, a motion concerning the next day for the sitting of the Senate;

That, if at any point during the sitting the Government Representative advises the Senate that a message from the House of Commons concerning an appropriation bill is not expected or that a message from the Crown concerning Royal Assent is not expected, the Senate adjourn to the next sitting day, as provided for either pursuant to order made under the previous paragraph or the provisions of the Rules, as the case may be; and

That, for greater certainty, any other business for Friday, March 22, 2019, be deferred to the next sitting of the Senate, except as provided for in this order.

The Hon. the Speaker: Is leave granted, honourable senators?

Hon. Senators: Agreed.
