Parliamentary Bureau Motions

The Deputy Presiding Officer (Elaine Smith)

The next item of business is consideration of two Parliamentary Bureau motions. I ask Joe FitzPatrick to move motion S4M-08186, on the designation of a lead committee, and motion S4M-08187, on the office of the clerk.

Motions moved,

That the Parliament agrees that the Local Government and Regeneration Committee be designated as the lead committee in consideration of the Defective and Dangerous Buildings (Recovery of Expenses) (Scotland) Bill at stage 1.

That the Parliament agrees that the Office of the Clerk be closed on Friday 27, Monday 30 and Tuesday 31 December 2013.—[Joe FitzPatrick.]

The questions on the motions will be put at decision time, to which we now come.
