Chair’s selection and grouping of amendments for
debate in Committee
Tuesday 10 February 2026
Chairs: Emma Lewell, Esther McVey, Dr Andrew Murrison, Graham Stringer
Clerks: Simon Armitage, Harriet Deane
About this paper
This paper shows —
● which amendments the Chair has selected for debate and how those amendments
have been grouped for debate;
● which amendments have been withdrawn or not selected for debate; and
● which amendments were debated during an earlier sitting of the Committee (if
applicable).
Please note that the Chair can change their decision at any time.
Each numbered group in this document is a potential debate. The purpose of grouping is
to reduce repetition of subject matter between debates.
The text of the clauses and schedules can be found in the Bill. The text of the
amendments can be found in the latest amendment paper.
Bills and amendment papers are available in this Bill’s area on Parliament website, at

Office outlets on the parliamentary estate.

Decisions on amendments and clauses follow the order in which they come in the Bill.
Amendments are arranged on the amendment paper to reflect that. This may not be the
same order in which they are debated.
Decisions on new clauses are usually taken after decisions on existing clauses and
schedules, even though they may be grouped for debate at an earlier stage.
