There will be a division.

There will be a short suspension to allow members to access the digital voting system.

The cabinet secretary will now take questions on the issues that were raised in her statement. I intend to allow around 20 minutes for questions, after which we will move to the next item of business.

The next item of business is topical question time. In order to get in as many members as possible, I would be grateful for short and succinct questions and responses.

I call Willie Coffey to wind up the debate.

Please conclude, Mr Kerr.

I call George Adam to respond on behalf of the Parliamentary Bureau.

Colleagues, I would like to hear the minister.

There will be a division.
