Before we move to decision time, I would like to make a brief statement. I take this opportunity to clarify to members that, further to the Presiding Officer's ruling in February 2004 in relation to allegations of misleading Parliament, I will not allow the use of the words "lies", "liar" or "lying" in any circumstances. Any member using such terminology will be ruled out of order, as occurred this afternoon, but will in the future also be asked to withdraw the comment and to apologise. I hope that that is quite clear. [Applause.] This is not a matter for applause by any members of Parliament, I hasten to add.
