Could we stop the clock for a minute, please? For the information of Members, Thursday evening's Private Members' business, by way of the order of the House, is to be taken for 75 minutes. The opening 30 minutes are available in the format of 15 minutes for the proposer of the motion and 15 minutes for the Minister or Minister of State to respond. At the end, the Government has five minutes to respond and the proposer has ten minutes to make an overall response. In the middle, the rest of the time must be consumed by other Members, who must indicate on a first come, first served basis.

After all of that, we have more people offering than we would be able to give ten minutes to each. They will need to work out between themselves-----
