This amendment will clarify the standing rules on whether to suspend the rules.

This needs to be added into the Constitution as soon as possible.

Ah, it looks like you're right. Apparently, the amendments to the SOAP haven't been added yet. In that case, we'll have to table this bill as it's already passed.
