Business Motion

The next item of business is consideration of business motion S3M-8196, in the name of Bruce Crawford, on behalf of the Parliamentary Bureau, setting out a business programme.

16:59

Before I move the motion, I should explain why it is before us. Decision time was originally scheduled for 1.25 pm next Tuesday, but it is being moved forward to 1 o’clock as a result of there being fewer amendments than we thought.

Given that this is probably the last time that I will be moving a motion, I should say that it has been a delight to move so many motions in this Parliament.

I move,
