HOUSE OF LORDS - United Kingdom Parliament

a motion, an amendment to the motion, and any amendment to
the amendment, must each be moved and proposed in the form
of a Question from the Woolsack before they can be further
debated;
a member of the House who moves a motion, an amendment to
it or any amendment to the amendment, may speak for that
purpose and has a right of reply on his motion or amendment;
a member whose motion is sought to be amended by one or
more proposed amendments may make separate speeches dealing
with each amendment, but may not himself move any
amendment; if, having seen the terms of any proposed
amendment, he seeks to modify his own motion he should
indicate in his opening speech the terms of the motion which he is
actually moving so that the original Question can be put in that
amended form;
a member who has neither moved the original motion nor any
amendment to it may speak once on the motion and once on any
amendment or on any amendment to that amendment;
a member who moves an amendment should not speak separately
on the original motion, but has a right of reply on his amendment.
6.72 At the end of the debate on an amendment to a motion, the Lord
on the Woolsack states the terms of the original motion and of the
amendment and then puts the Question “that this amendment be agreed
to”.
6.73 If there is an equality of votes in a division on such an amendment,
the amendment is disagreed to.
6.74 If there is more than one amendment to a motion, the
amendments are dealt with in the order in which they relate to the
motion, or, if they relate to the same place in the motion, in the order in
which they were tabled.
6.75 If amendments are moved to an amendment, such amendments
are dealt with in the order in which they stand on the order paper, in the
same manner as if they were amendments to a motion, until all are
disposed of. Then the original amendment is dealt with.
6.76 If any amendment is agreed to, at the end of the debate the Lord
on the Woolsack puts the Question:
“That the original motion, as amended, be agreed to”.
