On a point of order, Presiding Officer. At First Minister's question time today, I asked the First Minister about work that needs to get under way in response to the Forth Estuary Transport Authority's survey for a new Forth road bridge. The First Minister said that it would be stupid of us to carry out such work in the absence of information. In the public domain this afternoon, there is a paper that suggests that, by 2019, the bridge will close to all traffic. Is it acceptable that the First Minister knew of that and refused to refer to it in the chamber today?
I had 10 seconds' warning of this point of order. I am not au fait with all the details, but I suggest that you take up the matter directly with the Executive. It is not a matter for me in the Parliament.
