Explanation

For such modification or non-application notifications, a copy of the proposed notification is laid in draft before each House for thirty days in total, in one or more sessions. If both Houses agree in disapproving it, it is not issued, and if both agree on a modification, it is issued only in that form. This differs from the amendment of the First Schedule, where notifications are simply laid after issue.
