I move the motion relating to the proposed amendment to standing order 192 in the terms in which it appears on the Notice Paper:

That standing order 192 be amended as follows:

Figure 4. Federation Chamber indicative order of business

The meeting times of the Federation Chamber are fixed by the Deputy Speaker and are subject to change. Times shown for the start and finish of items of business are approximate. Adjournment debates can occur on days other than Thursdays by agreement between the Whips.

For the benefit of members, now that on Wednesdays and Thursdays we start here half an hour earlier, this amendment allows the Federation Chamber to start half an hour earlier than it otherwise would.

Question agreed to.
