alone — no additional MSPs have signed on.
No division on the main motion.
The chamber divided on the amendments, but not on the motion itself. It was likely agreed without a vote, or withdrawn before the final question was put.
Computer-generated best guess
Possible final motion text as originally lodged
This is a computer’s best guess at applying carried amendments to the original motion text. It uses simple text rules for phrases such as “insert at end”, “after X insert Y”, and “leave out from X to end and insert Y”. Treat it as an aid, not the official motion text.
