Time Allocation for Committee of Supply

10.30 am

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 FY2026/2027 in the Committee of Supply.

In fixing these times, I have taken into account the reduction of Question Time to 30 minutes on the days allotted for the Committee of Supply debates and the extension of Sitting times of the Committee of Supply for each of the allotted days.

Additionally, Members are notified that the Sittings on the allotted days of 27 February to 6 March will commence at 10.00 am.

The "guillotine" times I have fixed have been notified to hon Members.

I would also like to remind Members to use slides and videos sparingly to keep the spirit of our debating Chamber. Focusing on the delivery of speeches to be made will create a greater impact in a debate.

Order. Questions for Oral Answer.
