A Royal Commission is expected: any business scheduled after it has been received will not be proceeded with The Speaker will not adjourn the House until a Message has been received from the Lords Commissioners (if the Business of the House (Today) motion is agreed to).
This is a procedural notice that Parliament will be prorogued (dissolved). A Royal Commission message from the Lords Commissioners is expected, and once received, no further business will be conducted that day. The Speaker will keep the House in session until this formal message arrives, which formally ends the parliamentary session.
Prorogation is a significant constitutional event that dissolves Parliament and typically precedes a general election or major parliamentary reset. This affects all MPs, all pending legislation, and all constituents as it marks the formal end of a parliamentary session and the cessation of all legislative business.
