Mr Speaker, for the sake of clarity, the Leader of the Opposition sought leave to move the motion, which is his proposition. We understood that proposition was being agreed to, but if that was not the case—which was unclear at the time—the Leader of the Opposition now simply seeks to move the motion as he read out to the House, in which case he would speak for 20 minutes, the seconder would speak for 15 minutes, et cetera.
