We have a point of order from Mr McCabe.
Presiding Officer, I seek your permission to make a point of order in relation to the business that we are about to discuss. I inform the chamber that the First Minister has this morning written to Her Majesty the Queen and to the Presiding Officer indicating that he intends to tender his resignation. The First Minister intends to come to Parliament later today to make a personal statement. I ask that the business of Parliament be suspended until later this afternoon.
I accept the point of order. I take it that Mr McLetchie will not now move motion S1M-2412 on the conduct of the First Minister.
I withdraw the motion.
