Chamber and committees

I thank members for stepping into the deliberate trap that I set for them. That being the case, consider yourselves suitably chastised.

Rather, the question is, that section 2, as amended, be agreed to.

Section 2, as amended, agreed to.

After section 2

I am glad that I was so persuasive from the chair, Mr Balfour.

Amendments 109 to 111 moved—[Jeremy Balfour]—and agreed to.

Amendments 112 to 115 not moved.

Section 7, as amended, agreed to.

Section 8—Appeal to First-tier Tribunal against process decisions

That takes us to a fresh group, but I intend to end the first day’s stage 2 consideration there. I thank the cabinet secretary and her team for joining us.

That concludes our public business for today. We will return for the conclusion of stage 2 consideration on Thursday 26 September.

There is no provision for a point of order, Mr Balfour.

Group 8 is on discretionary housing payments: military compensation. Amendment 8, in the name of Jeremy Balfour, is the only amendment in the group.

The next group is on carer support payment. Amendment 3, in the name of Jeremy Balfour, is grouped with amendment 4.

The next group is on new determination of entitlement after error. Amendment 106, in the name of Jeremy Balfour, is grouped with amendments 107 to 115.

I call amendments 109 to 111, in the name of Jeremy Balfour—

We move to a new group, on assistance given in error. Amendment 25 in the name of the cabinet secretary is grouped with amendments 26, 29 to 51 and 98.

No other member wishes to speak at this point. Cabinet secretary, would you like to wind up?
