On substitution on committees, Presiding Officer, the Parliament is being asked to agree the nominations for substitutes that are laid out in the business motion, as permitted under rule 6.3A. As you might imagine, they include all the committees that the Parliament has already agreed to in terms of the structure for this session. All the parties have successfully provided the business team with the appropriate names for substitutions in each committee.

I move,
