Decision Time

There is one question to be put as a result of today’s business. I propose to ask a single question on the six Parliamentary Bureau motions unless any member objects.

As no member has objected, the question is, that motions S6M-05999 and S6M-06000, on approval of Scottish statutory instruments, S6M-06001, on substitution on committees, and S6M-06002 to S6M-06004, on the designation of lead committees, be agreed to.

Motions agreed to,

That the Parliament agrees that the Age of Criminal Responsibility (Reports on Use of Places of Safety) (Scotland) Regulations 2022 [draft] be approved.

That the Parliament agrees that the Scottish Tribunals (Listed Tribunals) Regulations 2022 [draft] be approved.

That the Parliament agrees that James Dornan be appointed to replace Marie McNair as the Scottish National Party substitute on the Health, Social Care and Sport Committee.

That the Parliament agrees that the Economy and Fair Work Committee be designated as the lead committee in consideration of the legislative consent memorandum in relation to the UK Infrastructure Bank Bill (UK Legislation).

That the Parliament agrees that the Net Zero, Energy and Transport Committee be designated as the lead committee in consideration of the legislative consent memorandum in relation to the Levelling-up and Regeneration Bill (UK Legislation).

That the Parliament agrees that the Economy and Fair Work Committee be designated as the lead committee in consideration of the legislative consent memorandum in relation to the Trade (Australia and New Zealand) Bill (UK Legislation).

That concludes decision time. We will move on to the next item of business after a brief pause. I ask members who are leaving the chamber to do so quickly and quietly.
