Business Motion
The next item of business is consideration of business motion S5M-24259, in the name of Graeme Dey, on behalf of the Parliamentary Bureau, setting out a timetable for the stage 3 consideration of the Defamation and Malicious Publication (Scotland) Bill. I invite Graeme Dey to move the motion.

Groups 1 to 5: 45 minutes.—[Graeme Dey]
Motion agreed to.
