Item of business
Parliamentary Bureau Motions
The question on the motion will be put at decision time.
The next item of business is consideration of a further Parliamentary Bureau motion. I ask Joe FitzPatrick to move motion S4M-10140, on the suspension of standing orders.
Motion moved,
That the Parliament agrees that, for the purpose of allowing the Justice Committee to start consideration of the Courts Reform (Scotland) Bill at stage 2 on 10 June 2014, Rule 9.5.3A of Standing Orders be suspended.—[Joe FitzPatrick.]
