Motion S2M-1694 will not be moved. I understand that, instead, Patricia Ferguson will move a motion without notice.
Before I move the motion without notice to take the business motions, it might be helpful if I explain briefly their purpose. In line with yesterday's decision by the Parliamentary Bureau, I propose to move a motion to change the business that is scheduled for 22 September to allow Parliament to debate the report of the Holyrood inquiry. The revised business motion will seek Parliament's agreement that the meeting on 22 September be extended until 7 pm to allow a full debate on the report to take place. Before moving that motion, I am required to move two procedural motions, first, to suspend the members' business debate on Wednesday evening and, secondly, to change decision time to 7 pm.
Is it agreed that we take the motion without notice?
Members indicated agreement.
Motion moved,
That S2M-1698, S2M-1700 and S2M-1699 be taken at this meeting of Parliament.—[Patricia Ferguson.]
Motion agreed to.
