Thank you. There are no speakers. Therefore, as there is no debate and no speakers, and I take it nobody wants to make an intervention, the proposal is to amend the Standing Orders. Does any Member object? No. That's good. Therefore that motion is agreed in accordance with Standing Order 12.36.

Motion agreed in accordance with Standing Order 12.36.
