The next item of business is consideration of business motion S6M-07608, in the name of George Adam, on behalf of the Parliamentary Bureau, setting out a timetable for the stage 3 consideration of the Hunting with Dogs (Scotland) Bill.
Motion moved,
That the Parliament agrees that, during stage 3 of the Hunting with Dogs (Scotland) Bill, debate on groups of amendments shall, subject to Rule 9.8.4A, be brought to a conclusion by the time limits indicated, those time limits being calculated from when the stage begins and excluding any periods when other business is under consideration or when a meeting of the Parliament is suspended (other than a suspension following the first division in the stage being called) or otherwise not in progress:
Groups 1 to 4: 1 hour 40 minutes
Groups 5 and 6: 3 hours 40 minutes
Groups 7 and 8: 5 hours 10 minutes
Groups 9 to 11: 6 hours 10 minutes.—[George Adam]
Motion agreed to.
We will pause briefly as we wait for those involved in the stage 3 proceedings to take their places. I remind members that all business follows on—although there are timings, they are estimates and we expect members to be here for the next item of business if they are involved in that item.
