5.30 pm Decision Time—[Joe FitzPatrick.]

Motion agreed to.

The motion has moved decision time to 5.30. I apologise to members for the lack of advance notice. The issue was raised and fully discussed at the bureau, and the inconvenience of the revision of business was balanced against the number of members who wish to speak in the housing debate, which would otherwise have been squeezed.
