It is very challenging as a Speaker to monitor a virtual hybrid setting. We looked at various scenarios if we did move to that model. We did consult heavily with the House leaders and also the unaffiliated members.
We felt that we would have to move to much more structured proceedings where everything was scripted. We would know who would be speaking, which order they would be speaking in and also the full proceedings of the day. It wouldn't allow for members to rise to speak without our having previous notice.
