On page 450 of House of Commons Procedure and Practice, Mr. Chair, it is stated:As a general rule, every question that is debatable is amendable. Exceptions are the motion to adjourn for the purpose of an emergency debate....
Motions decided without debate or amendment generally include:
- motions that the House do now adjourn;
- motions to proceed to the Orders of the Day;
- motions that the House proceeds to another order of business;
—which is what we've done just now—
- motions that the debate be now adjourned; and
- motions that the question be postponed to a specific day.
