The next item of business is the consideration of Parliamentary Bureau motions.
On a point of order, Presiding Officer. Could some other member of the Executive not move the motions?
That is what I have been trying to determine for the past 30 seconds, Mr Canavan. I may have to suspend the meeting for two minutes. [Interruption.]
Motion moved,
That the Parliament agrees that the time for consideration of Stage 3 of the Convention Rights (Compliance) (Scotland) Bill be allocated as follows, so that debate on each part of the proceedings, if not previously brought to a conclusion, shall be brought to a conclusion on the expiry of the specified period (calculated from the time when Stage 3 begins)—
Group 1 to Group 3—no later than 50 minutes
Group 4 to Group 8—no later than 1 hour 20 minutes
Group 9 to Group 15—no later than 2 hours
Motion to pass the Bill—no later than 2 hours 30 minutes.—[Tricia Marwick.]
Motion agreed to.
I now ask Tricia Marwick to move motion S1M-1973, in the name of Mr Tom McCabe on behalf of the Parliamentary Bureau, on the designation of a lead committee.
Motion moved,
That the Parliament agrees the following designation of Lead Committee—
the Justice 2 Committee to consider the Sex Offenders (Notification Requirements) (Prescribed Police Stations) (Scotland) (No 2) Regulations 2001 (SSI 2001/190).—[Tricia Marwick.]
The question on that motion will be put at decision time.
