The result of the division on amendment S6M-11127.2, in the name of Russell Findlay, is: For 49, Against 63, Abstentions 1.
Amendment disagreed to.
The next question is, that amendment S6M-11127.1, in the name of Katy Clark, which seeks to amend motion S6M-11127, in the name of Siobhian Brown, on cashback for communities, be agreed to.
Amendment agreed to.
The next question is, that motion S6M-11127, in the name of Siobhian Brown, on cashback for communities, as amended, be agreed to.
Motion, as amended, agreed to,
That the Parliament commends the CashBack for Communities programme, which is now in its 15th year and sixth phase; understands that the programme is unique to Scotland and reinvests money recovered under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002; acknowledges that the aims of the programme are diversion from antisocial behaviour, provision of positive activity, support for wellbeing, and building confidence and skills for young people; notes that, since its inception, the programme has committed £130 million to supporting around 1.3 million young people; understands that, over the next three years, phase six of the programme is expected to reach around 34,000 young people; welcomes and thanks the CashBack for Communities-funded partner organisations for their dedication, passion and hard work; recognises the opportunities and benefits that the programme brings to children, young people, families and communities; applauds the achievements of the many thousands of CashBack for Communities participants, and recognises the importance of access to restorative justice practices, not only as a measure to prevent antisocial behaviour, but also as a tool for young people who are already involved in the criminal justice system.
I propose to ask a single question on five Parliamentary Bureau motions. Does any member object?
Members: No.
The question is, that motions S6M-11146, on approval of a Scottish statutory instrument; S6M-11147 and S6M-11148, on designations of lead committee; S6M-11149, on committee membership; and S6M-11150, on the office of the clerk, in the name of George Adam, on behalf of the Parliamentary Bureau, be agreed to.
Motions agreed to,
That the Parliament agrees that the Disability Assistance (Miscellaneous Amendment) (Scotland) Regulations 2023 [draft] be approved.
That the Parliament agrees that the Local Government, Housing and Planning Committee be designated as the lead committee in consideration of the Housing (Cladding Remediation) (Scotland) Bill at stage 1.
That the Parliament agrees that the Social Justice and Social Security Committee be designated as the lead committee in consideration of the Social Security (Amendment) (Scotland) Bill at stage 1.
That the Parliament agrees that the following changes to committee membership will apply from close of business on Thursday 9 November 2023—
