To move to resolve that, with effect from 6 September 2022, this House should sit at 1pm on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, normally rising by 8.30pm on those days.

Amendment to the Motion

Leave out from “move” to the end and insert “that this House continues with its current sitting arrangements”.

My Lords, I wish to move my amendment formally and to test the opinion of the House.

I inform the House that if this amendment is agreed to, I will be unable to call the remaining amendments by reason of pre-emption.
