                ANNOUNCEMENT BY THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. After consultation among the Speaker and the 
majority and minority leaders, and with their consent, the Chair 
announces that, when the two Houses meet in joint meeting to hear an 
address by His Majesty King Abdullah II, only the doors immediately 
opposite the Speaker and those immediately to her left and right will 
be open.
  No one will be allowed on the floor of the House who does not have 
the privilege of the floor of the House. Due to the large attendance 
that is anticipated, the rule regarding the privilege of the floor must 
be strictly enforced. Children of Members will not be permitted on the 
floor. The cooperation of all Members is requested.
  The practice of reserving seats prior to the joint meeting by placard 
will not be allowed. Members may reserve their seats by physical 
presence only following the security sweep of the Chamber.
