Parliament will on Monday start debating a procedural motion moved by the Prime Minister yesterday.

The motion is aimed at changing the regular timetable of the House of Representatives for the first time in some 30 years so that Wednesday sittings will start being held between 10 a.m. and 1.30 p.m.

This will be followed by a debate on the Criminal Code, the Registration Tax and the committee on Rent Laws.

A private member's motion moved by the leader of the Opposition urging the government to withdraw its support for the proposed underground extension to St John's Co-Cathedral Museum will be debated on February 11.

On that day, the House Business Committee will meet to decide when to debate a motion moved by Labour MP Joe Mizzi to annul the utility tariffs. Debate on this motion will take two sittings and be held by the end of February.
