Lords ChamberMy Lords, because the Question for Short Debate, tabled by the noble Lord, Lord McConnell, will now be taken as last business, the time limit for the debate becomes 90 minutes, rather than 60. Speeches should therefore be limited to nine minutes, except for the speech of the noble Lord, Lord McConnell, and that of the Minister, which remain limited to 10 minutes and 12 minutes respectively.
