For the Orders of the Day [§ 13], and questions relating to the
priority of business.

Questions relating to Reading of Papers [§ 16], or Withdrawing a
Motion [§ 17], or Suspending the Rules [§ 18], or extending the limits
of debate [§ 34], or limiting or closing debate, or granting leave to
continue his speech to one who has been guilty of indecorum in debate
[§ 36].
To Lie on the Table or to Take from the Table [§ 19].
The Previous Question [§ 20].
To Reconsider [§ 26] a question which is itself undebatable.

The motion to Postpone to a certain time [§ 21] allows of but very
limited debate, which must be confined to the propriety of the
postponement; but to Reconsider a debatable question [§ 26], or to
Commit [§ 22], or Indefinitely Postpone [§ 24], opens the main question
[§ 6] to debate. To Amend [§ 23] opens the main question to debate only
so far as it is necessarily involved in the amendment.

The distinction between debate and making suggestions or asking a
question, should always be kept in view, and when the latter will
assist the assembly in determining the question, is allowed to a
limited extent, even though the question before the assembly is
undebatable.
