Decision Time

The final question is, that motion S5M-24165, in the name of Michael Russell, on “Doing Politics Differently: The Report of the Citizens’ Assembly of Scotland”, as amended, be agreed to. Are we agreed? We are not agreed.

There will be a division. I will allow two minutes for the division, as we are doing this entirely online.

The vote is now closed. Please let me know in the chat function if you were not able to vote or if you had any other problems and need to raise a point of order.

I need to make a correction to the vote on amendment S5M-24165.3, in the name of Anas Sarwar. I read out the result of the division as: For 86, Against 29, Abstentions 0. That should have been: For 87, Against 29, Abstentions 0.
