Arrangement of Business

Viscount Ullswater Excerpts

Tuesday 17th May 2011 Grand Committee

[The Deputy Chairman of Committees (Viscount Ullswater)]

My Lords, before the Minister moves that the first statutory instrument be considered, could I remind noble Lords that in the case of each statutory instrument the Motion before the Committee will be that the Committee do consider the statutory instrument in question? I should perhaps make it clear that the Motions to approve the statutory instruments will subsequently be moved in the Chamber in the usual way.

If there is a Division in the House the Committee will adjourn for 10 minutes.

By agreement of the usual channels, the Committee will adjourn after the debate on the Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading Scheme (Nitrous Oxide) Regulations 2011. The Committee will resume at 4.45 pm and it is expected, subject to the agreement of the Committee, that consideration of the Regulation of Investigatory Powers (Monetary Penalty Notices and Consents for Interceptions) Regulations 2011 will be postponed until the end of business—that is, until after the Committee has completed its consideration of the Water Industry (Schemes for Adoption of Private Sewers) Regulations 2011.
