I require the House's approval as the Minister of State is anxious at the outset to make a one minute statement and to update the House on the current situation but I can only do this with the House's approval. Is that agreed? Agreed. Members have one minute each. I ask Members to observe the one minute rule as I will not allow any slippage. The Minister of State has one minute to give an initial speech and four minutes at a later stage.
