(Report of Special Committee on Standing Committees.)

This Committee was appointed by a Resolution of the Seanad on the 25th January, 1923, pursuant to Article 70 of the Provisional Standing Orders, which is as follows:—

“At the commencement of each Session the Seanad shall appoint a Committee on Standing Orders, which shall consist of the Cathaoirleach and Leas-Chathaoirleach ex officio, and not more than four Senators.”

The Committee so appointed is constituted as follows :—Lord Glenavy, James G. Douglas, Andrew Jameson, John T. O’Farrell, Patrick W. Kenny, Sir John Keane.

The Committee presented a Report to the Seanad on the 15th March, 1923, which was adopted. They have since considered the Standing Orders in detail, and they have decided to recommend the appended Draft Standing Orders to the Seanad, in lieu of the Provisional Standing Orders at present in operation.
