I thank the 17 Members for their contributions to the Order of Business. We will have a debate later on the motion in respect of the 25th anniversary of decriminalisation of homosexuality, which is important. In advance of debating the motion, I appeal to the Sinn Féin Members not to table their amendment and that, instead, we have an agreed cross-party motion. It was put forward in that spirit. I do not want to pre-empt the debate but I hope the motion can be taken without having to divide the House.
