Trial of additional tellers

A trial of two additional pairs of tellers for counting divisions was a response to a recommendation in the Procedure Committee's report Review of the conduct of divisions (presented in August 2003). That review followed an earlier report from the committee on the conduct of divisions which was presented in 1996. The rationale for both reports was to periodically review the potential for streamlining procedures used by the House to conduct divisions.
