I include the iarAire in that remark. Further to the earlier amendment to the Order of Business, I propose another amendment to the Order of Business that, notwithstanding anything in today's order in respect of this item, No. 3, statements on Palestine, the concluding time for this item be extended in order to conclude this debate at 4.30 p.m. I propose extending the time so that the item would be concluded by 4.30 p.m. so that we can have the business of the House that was already agreed. I accept that this business is very important, but to be fair there are Ministers who have commitments beyond their scheduled time here which have implications and import for other legislation.
