The joint committee should be permitted to conclude its hearings and I ask the Leader to reconsider the Order of Business in light of the unanimous motion supported by her colleagues, my colleagues and others. If it was acceptable to freeze Report Stage of the Bill last week, it is again acceptable to do so. There is no reason that we should not instead take statements on Iraq in order that all groups in the House could present their views on the matter to the Minister for Foreign Affairs or one of the Ministers of State from his Department. It would be extremely wrong to proceed with Report Stage, given the timely intervention of the joint committee in the form of its unanimous motion.
