As a vótáil has been called and all members of the committee are not present, we shall have to ring the bells for eight minutes, although I think we are pretty sure that all members of the committee will not be present. I ask members again to consider that every vote that is called for adds approximately ten minutes to our time, which is probably time that could be more appropriately spent discussing amendments than sitting listening to bells. I ask members to consider that before calling for votes.
