The next item of business is consideration of three Parliamentary Bureau motions. I ask Bruce Crawford to move motions S4M-01731 and S4M-01732 on the approval of Scottish statutory instruments and motion S4M-01733 on the designation of a lead committee.

Motions moved,

That the Parliament agrees that the Equality Act 2010 (Specification of Public Authorities) (Scotland) Order 2012 [draft] be approved.

That the Parliament agrees that the Scottish Public Services Ombudsman Act 2002 Amendment Order 2012 [draft] be approved.

That the Parliament agrees that the Rural Affairs, Climate Change and Environment Committee be designated as the lead committee in consideration of the Long Leases (Scotland) Bill at Stage 1.—[Bruce Crawford.]

The questions on the motions will be put at decision time.
