There is no guillotine on the Health Insurance (Amendment) Bill 2013. It is to be considered this evening. I cannot anticipate how the House will respond to it or whether somebody will call a vote. There is nothing unusual about the arrangement. The House is entitled to make arrangements as to when votes will be held. Some parliaments take all votes on all business at a set time each week. We cannot anticipate the debate or whether there will be a demand for a vote. We are just specifying a time for a vote if there is a call for one.
