Order! Hon members, we now come to the Consideration of Votes and Schedule of the Appropriation Bill. Could I propose that in order for us to move a little bit faster, we don't use the electronic voting system and follow the normal procedure? When we start, I will announce how we are going to sit so that we expedite the process. Does the House agree with that? Okay, that's fine.
As there is no speakers' list, I shall now put the Votes in the order in which they appear on the schedule to the Bill. Before I do so, I would like to remind members that during voting the doors will be closed. I hope you have checked that everybody is inside, because we don't want to lock people out. Are all members from all sides inside the House? Vote No 1 - The Presidency - put.
Division demanded.
