Madam Deputy Speaker, on behalf of the Chief Whip of the Majority Party, I move the draft resolution printed in his name on the Order Paper, as follows:
That the House-
1) notes that-
a) the Joint Rules Committee in November 2006 approved a particular Emblem for Parliament, while identifying a need for a slight adjustment;
b) a public involvement process and full consultation with parties have taken place in the development of this emblem;
c) the Parliament Oversight Authority had considered the proposal and suggested further refinement; and
d) the launch of the new emblem is planned for early 2007; and
2) authorises the Presiding Officers to approve the emblem, after consultation with parties, and to formally present it to the Houses in early 2007.
Agreed to.
