What are you trying to do? There are dozens of constitutionalists in the house, almost all asleep.

Why do you ask a parliamentary question?

Yes, I would imagine they are asleep. The reason for the question is to see what options exist for either delaying or reversing a vote already taken.

Example: A motion has been made and passed. New information surfaces leading some to seek a second vote or to kill the previous vote.

In the alternative, allowing more time before the previous vote takes effect might be all that is needed.

The question becomes, what are the parlimentary options for accomplishing either of those two objectives.

Thinking that those asleep or those still awake might enjoy working it through.
