Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I give notice that on Thursday, March 2, 2000, I will move the following motion: I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Weledeh that notwithstanding Rule 4, that when this House adjourns on Tuesday, February 29, 2000, it shall be adjourned until Tuesday, March 21, 2000.

And further, that any time prior to March 21, 2000, if the Speaker is satisfied, after consultation with the Executive Council and Members of the Legislative Assembly, that the public interest requires that the House should meet at an earlier time during the adjournment, the Speaker may give notice and thereupon the House shall meet at the time stated in such notice and shall transact its business as it has been duly adjourned to that time.

At the appropriate time, I will seek unanimous consent to deal with my motion today. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
