I made a ruling earlier. The House has to agree to a withdrawal. Two Senators did not wish to do so. I said that if someone debates an amendment for an hour or an hour and a half and then proposes to withdraw the amendment, it is like saying we will have a second bite at the cherry on Report Stage. By moving and withdrawing the amendment now the Senator will certainly be able to re-enter it.
