Third Reading

The House debates the bill for the final time and votes to decide whether it should become law.

A "sitting day" can last more than one day when the House is in urgency or an extended sitting. In this case, all business is officially recorded as happening on the date the sitting started (the sitting date), even if the actual date (the calendar date) is different. Find out more.
