On a point of order, Presiding Officer. According to media reports this morning, the European Commission will announce today the long-awaited outcome of the fishing negotiations. Will you give me guidance on what procedure would require to be followed to allow the Executive to make a statement before the recess? Have you received a request from the Executive to make such a statement today?
All I can tell the member at this stage is that I have received no such request. If one were to be made in the course of the day, it would be handled in the usual way.
