I ask the Ceann Comhairle to clarify the format the debate will take. Will we just have speeches or will there will be questions and answers, as with Committee Stage?

The format will be the same as for Committee Stage in a debate.

The resolutions will be discussed in groups but voted on individually. Is that correct?
