Point of Order

Margo MacDonald (Lothians) (Ind):

On a point of order, Presiding Officer, I seek your guidance on the length of amendments. I refer to amendment S2M-2554.2, in Brian Monteith's name, which reads like "War and Peace" and not like an amendment. Do the standing orders offer guidance on how to frame amendments and motions? A lot of motions and amendments are getting far too long.

The point that the Conservatives were trying to make was in order.
