Item of business
Decision Time
I thank colleagues for their patience. There are clearly a lot of complicated votes and connectivity issues tonight.
The next question is, that motion S5M-23911, in the name of Graeme Dey, on approval of an SSI, be agreed to. This is the second motion to which Michelle Ballantyne spoke. Are we agreed?
Members: No.
