Mr Speaker: Order. Pursuant to paragraph (7) of Standing Order 92, I have fixed the times for the conclusion of consideration of the heads of expenditure in the Estimates of Expenditure for FY 2012/2013 in the Committee of Supply (COS).

In fixing these times, I have taken into account the reduction of Question Time to 30 minutes on the days allotted for the COS debates and the sitting times of the COS. I have notified Members that the sittings on the allotted days will commence at 11.00 am. Additionally, pursuant to SO 91(3)(a), I have extended the time for the sitting on these allotted days to 7.30 pm on each day. The "guillotine" times I have fixed have been notified to hon Members and will appear in the Official Report (Pg 1543-1545).
