The first item of business this morning is consideration of motion S5M-21369, in the name of Michael Russell, on treating the Coronavirus (Scotland) Bill as an emergency bill. The motion allows us to treat the bill as an emergency bill, which means that the votes at stage 1 and at stage 3, and on a financial resolution, will follow immediately after the debates. In other words, the vote on stage 1 will be at 11 o’clock, not at decision time, as it would normally be.
Motion moved,
That the Parliament agrees that the Coronavirus (Scotland) Bill be treated as an Emergency Bill.—[Michael Russell]
Motion agreed to.
