Item of business
Decision Time
There will be a division.
The vote is now closed.
I am afraid that there were a few technical difficulties with that vote, so I will take points of order, and we will make sure that everybody’s vote is recorded.
We have a point of order from Rona Mackay, although I am not sure that the sound is working.
