§ Question accordingly agreed to.
§ Mr. ForthOn a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker. I think that we are coming to motion 6, the Business of the House.
Mr. Deputy SpeakerOrder. I am not trying to prevent the right hon. Gentleman from continuing his point of order, but we must deal with motions 4 and 5 before coming to motion 6. Does the right hon. Gentleman want to pursue his point of order now?
§ Mr. ForthI am seeking guidance on the conduct of motion 6, so I am content to follow your advice, Mr. Deputy Speaker.
