Decision Time

The Presiding Officer (Alison Johnstone)

There are five questions to be put as a result of today’s business. I remind members that, if the amendment in the name of Ivan McKee is agreed to, the amendment in the name of Ross Greer will fall.

The first question is, that amendment S6M-15086.3, in the name of Ivan McKee, which seeks to amend motion S6M-15086, in the name of Kenneth Gibson, on behalf of the Finance and Public Administration Committee, on Scotland’s commissioner landscape, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

Members: No.

The Presiding Officer

There will be a division.

There will be a short suspension to allow members to access the digital voting system.

17:06 Meeting suspended.  

17:08 On resuming—  

The Presiding Officer

I remind members that, if the amendment in the name of Ivan McKee is agreed to, the amendment in the name of Ross Greer will fall.

We move to the vote on amendment S6M-15086.3, in the name of Ivan McKee, which seeks to amend motion S6M-15086, in the name of Kenneth Gibson, on behalf of the Finance and Public Administration Committee, on Scotland’s commissioner landscape. Members should cast their votes now.

On a point of order, Presiding Officer. I cannot connect. I would have voted no.

The Presiding Officer

The result of the division on motion S6M-15086, in the name of Kenneth Gibson, on behalf of the Finance and Public Administration Committee, on Scotland’s commissioner landscape, as amended, is: For 92, Against 24, Abstentions 0.

Motion, as amended, agreed to,

That the Parliament welcomes the Finance and Public Administration Committee’s 7th Report, 2024 (Session 6), Scotland’s Commissioner Landscape: A Strategic Approach (SP Paper 642); agrees with the recommendation that a dedicated committee should be established to carry out a “root and branch” review, with the purpose of creating a clear strategic framework to underpin and provide more coherence and structure to the Scottish Parliamentary Corporate Body (SPCB) supported body landscape, which should complete its work by June 2025, and further agrees that, while this review is undertaken, there should be a moratorium on creating any new SPCB supported bodies, or expanding the remit of existing bodies, while recognising that, for proposals within bills that have already been introduced, these are now for the Parliament to take a decision on, respecting the lead committees’ roles in scrutinising legislation within their remits.

The Presiding Officer

The next question is, that motion S6M-15088, in the name of Fiona Hyslop, which is a legislative consent motion on the Passenger Railway Services (Public Ownership) Bill, which is United Kingdom legislation, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

Members: No.

There will be a division.

The vote is closed.

On a point of order, Presiding Officer. My app would not connect. I would have voted to abstain.

The Presiding Officer

Thank you, Mr Cole-Hamilton. We will make sure that that is recorded.
