On a point of order, are we to assume that notwithstanding that the Government decided it was going to kick this down the road, it is not going to be proposed anymore? I understood the Order Paper was going to bring in the Leader of the House to propose an amendment. Is that not happening now? I would like somebody to tell us. I would have voted against her amendment because I think the issue is simple. Surely we should have some indication as to how it is that the Government puts in a supplemental amendment on the Order Paper and nobody turns up to move it. Somebody could tell us about that. That decision was made today on the basis of a Cabinet decision.
