Deputy Speaker Claydon, congratulations on your well-deserved election. I ask leave of the House to move a motion to suspend standing order 31, automatic adjournment of the House, for this sitting. By way of explanation, that's to allow all of the first speeches to go their usual course over the rest of the evening without being interrupted at 7.30.

Leave granted.

I move:

That standing order 31 (automatic adjournment of the House) be suspended for this sitting.

Question agreed to.
