Before I explain the division, the parents of Deputy Keira Keogh, Vinny and Mary, are in the Gallery and she has asked each and every one of you to behave yourselves in order to impress them. I must now deal with a postponed division relating to the motion on the Arts (Recognition of Comedy) (Amendment) Bill 2024. On Thursday, 6 November 2025, on the question, "That the amendment to the amendment be made", a division was claimed and in accordance with Standing Order 85(2), that division must be taken now.
