The Deputy Chairman of Committees (Lord Duncan of Springbank) (Con)
My Lords, the hybrid Grand Committee will now begin. Some Members are here in person, others are participating remotely, but all Members will be treated equally. I ask Members in the Room to respect social distancing. If the capacity of the Committee Room is exceeded, or other safety requirements are breached, I will immediately adjourn the Committee. This is the first time there has been almost enough to have capacity in the Room. If there is a Division in the House, the Committee will adjourn for five minutes. I reiterate that before you speak you should press the red button. Once you see a solid red, you will be heard—otherwise you will be very quiet indeed.
