    § 2. Suspension of Rules. a. No standing Rule or order of the House

    such notice and motion shall be held to apply only to the object
    specified therein.

    c. Such notice shall be given and such motion made under the order of
    business in which the matter proposed to be advanced by the suspension
    shall stand, provided, however, such notice shall not be required on the
    last day of the session.
