 When the debate is getting excessively heated, it is open to a member to move "that the Standing Order on Asperity of Speech be read by the Clerk".The motion can be debated, but if agreed by the House, the Clerk of the Parliaments will read Standing Order 33 which provides "That all personal, sharp, or taxing speeches be forborn".The Journals of the House of Lords record only four instances on which the House has ordered the Standing Order to be read since the procedure was invented in 1871.
