                    SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 640
                  NOTICE OF PROPOSED RULE CHANGE
    Notice is hereby given by the Senator from the 18th
    District of the one day notice required by rule of intent
    to put a motion to adopt the following rule change:
    BE IT RESOLVED by the Senate of the One Hundred Third
General Assembly, Second Regular Session, that Senate Rules 52
and 84 be amended to read as follows:
    "Rule 52. Senate bills reported to the senate from any
committee shall lie on the table one day before being
perfected and ordered printed.   Senate bills reported
perfected and house bills reported from committee shall lie
[over] on the table one day before being third read.     Senate
bills with house amendments, except for any bills subject to
the provisions of Rule 6, shall lie on the table one day
before being third read and finally passed by the Senate.
Conference committee reports, except for a report on any
bill subject to the provisions of Rule 6, shall lie on the
table one day before being acted upon by the Senate.
    Rule 84. The previous question shall be in this form:
"Shall the main question be now put?".   It shall only be
admitted on written demand of [ten] eighteen senators, and
sustained by a vote of a majority of the senators elected,
and in effect shall be put without debate, and bring the
senate to direct vote upon a motion to commit, if such
motion shall have been made; and if this motion does not
prevail, then upon amendments, and then upon the main
question. On demand for the previous question, a call of
the senate shall be in order, but after a majority of the
senators elected have sustained such a motion, no call shall
be in order prior to the decision on the main question.".
