European Union (Amendment) Bill

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker. I am sure you are aware that among the remaining orders and notices, No. 40 was drafted by my right hon. and hon. Friends and me. It is designed to give an instruction to the Committee to extend the scope of the Bill to allow a referendum on whether we should or should not be in the European Union. I seek your ruling, Mr. Deputy Speaker, on whether it is in order to deal with this in the Committee stage that is about to start. If not, will you guide us on how it can be amended or varied in a way that would make it more likely to be selected tomorrow?
