There are three Parliamentary Bureau motions. I do not know whether Mr Robson wants to make a speech on them to keep us going for a little while.
I was sorry to have missed some of the previous debate, because my uncle was for many years the chairman of a fire board in the west of Scotland. I would have liked to have had the opportunity to contribute to the debate, but my duties took me elsewhere.
You can contribute if you like.
No, thank you.
Motions moved,
That the Parliament agrees that the Health and Community Care Committee is designated as Lead Committee in consideration of the Community Care and Health (Scotland) Bill and that the Bill should also be considered by the Local Government Committee.
That the Parliament agrees that Murdo Fraser be appointed to replace David Mundell on the Subordinate Legislation Committee.
That the Parliament agrees that the following instruments be approved:
the Food Protection (Emergency Prohibitions) (Amnesic Shellfish Poisoning) (West Coast) (No.5) (Scotland) Order 2001 (SSI 2001/295); and
the Fishing Vessels (Decommissioning) (Scotland) Scheme 2001.—[Euan Robson.]
I am afraid that I have no option but to suspend the meeting for four minutes because I have no power to bring forward decision time.
Meeting suspended.
On resuming—
