Item of business
Business Motion
Mr Crawford, it is difficult to know at what time we will conclude. I allowed topical questions to run on today, both because there was a huge amount of interest and also partly to resolve the need for a statement on the subject of care homes. I am sure that members will appreciate that.
Although we were timetabled for an 18:30 decision time, our expectation was that we would run slightly under. Therefore, although we are now behind schedule, there is still a prospect of finishing at 18:30. I will be honest with you—it is up to members and ministers, because how long this item of business lasts depends on the length of their contributions. We should still aim for a 18:30 decision time, rather than 19:00.
