Item of business
Decision Time
There are four questions to be put as a result of today’s business.
I remind members that, if the amendment in the name of Jeremy Balfour is agreed to, the amendment in the name of Paul O’Kane will fall.
The question is, that amendment S6M-12079.2, in the name of Jeremy Balfour, which seeks to amend motion S6M-12079, in the name of Shirley-Anne Somerville, on delivering record social security investment in Scotland to tackle the cost of living crisis and inequality, be agreed to. Are we agreed?
Members: No.
