Mr President, I'd just like to request that sections (a) and (b) be voted on separately to (c).

Scott Ryan (President) Share this | Link to this | Hansard source

That will be done. You'd like (c) separate to (a) and (b); is that correct? I will put the motion moved by the minister, paragraphs (a) and (b).

Question agreed to.

I will now put paragraph (c) of that motion.

Question agreed to.
