Following this morning's discussion during Leaders' Questions, I propose, with the agreement of the House, that we debate the matter in question for an hour this afternoon, between 4.15 p.m. and 5.15 p.m. The Chief Whip will introduce an amendment to the Order of Business to that effect later this afternoon. We will proceed on that basis if that is okay.
