Ladder of amending and debate

[Tomm]

Assuming we are simply dealing with RONR;

As the deliberative process advances up a ladder from main motion, too a primary amendment, then too a secondary amendment.

Is this correct:

Member A can speak twice in debate on the main motion.

Member A can speak twice in debate on the primary amendment.

Member A can speak twice in debate on the secondary amendment.

However, as the amendment process works its way back down the ladder, Member A no longer has the ability to speak in debate because he/she used his/her allotted time up.

But....If Member A only spoke once on any one of the amendments, he/she could speak in debate one more time on that amendment, as the amendment process works its way back to the amended main motion?!?!

Assuming all this happens on the same day, I think you've got it.
