There are two questions to be put as a result of today’s business.
The first question is, that motion S6M-10429, in the name of Shirley-Anne Somerville, on United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (Incorporation) (Scotland) Bill reconsideration, be agreed to.
Motion agreed to,
That the Parliament agrees to reconsider the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (Incorporation) (Scotland) Bill.
The final question is, that motion S6M-10439, in the name of Maree Todd, on the role of football in Scottish society and communities, be agreed to.
Motion agreed to,
That the Parliament acknowledges that football contributes significantly to the cultural, social, economic and sporting fabric of Scotland, including through the work of the Scottish FA, which celebrates its 150th anniversary in 2023; recognises the important role that football clubs play in their communities, supporting a wide range of Scottish Government priorities; welcomes in particular the growth of inclusive opportunities in football in Scotland; notes that the Traffic Commissioners for Great Britain have withdrawn the consultation on proposed new guidelines for fans travelling to football matches in Scotland on public hire vehicles, and calls for any future consultation on and development of Scottish guidelines to be fully informed through the involvement of the Scottish Government, football clubs, authorities and, especially, fans and supporters’ groups to best meet Scottish needs and interests.
That concludes decision time.
