Motion Without Notice

I seek permission to move a motion without notice.

I am minded to accept a motion to bring forward decision time. Are we agreed?

Members indicated agreement.

In order to allow for the fact that business has concluded early, I move,

That the Parliament agrees under Rule 11.2.4 of the Standing Orders that Decision Time on Wednesday 6 June 2001 shall begin at 3.48 pm.

It would have been helpful if you had proposed a time of 3.47 pm, Mr Robson, but never mind.

Motion agreed to.

We have 28 seconds to fill.

Do you take requests, Presiding Officer?

No. However, I hope that all members will have a happy day tomorrow. I will not be able to participate, as I am classed as either a peer or a lunatic.

Presiding Officer, in the 28 seconds left, would you care to explain your support for increased fiscal autonomy?

That point is definitely very much out of order.
