Thank you, Mr President. I have a question I would like to put to you, if that is appropriate. Given the government’s concerns about having three separate committee stages and also the concerns of the Greens that there be a separate vote—given that they have, as I understand it, a different position in relation to one of the bills—is it possible under the standing orders for there to be a Committee of the Whole in respect of all the bills but then for there to be a separate vote with respect to the bills that are the subject of the Greens’ concerns?
