Decision Time
As I said earlier, we will first take all the votes from Thursday, 27 October; we will then take the votes from today’s business. As a result, there are nine questions to be put.
With regard to business on Thursday, 27 October, I remind members that, in relation to the debate on ensuring the integrity of Scots criminal law, if the amendment in the name of Johann Lamont is agreed to, the amendments in the names of John Lamont and Alison McInnes will fall.
The first question is, that amendment S4M-01134.3, in the name of Ken Macintosh, which seeks to amend motion S4M-01134, in the name of Angela Constance, on raising attainment and ambition for all Scotland’s young people, be agreed to. Are we agreed?
Members: No.
There will be a division.

Motion agreed to,
That the Parliament supports the Scottish Government placing rich attainment at the heart of its approach to enable all Scotland’s young people to improve their life chances and fulfil their ambitions; agrees that for a young child this means giving them the best start so that their cognitive, social and emotional skills enable them to successfully enter and progress in school, and agrees that for a young person this means recognising and affirming successful learning and giving them a passport to future opportunities and that for Scotland it will deliver improved competitiveness and increased opportunity for all.
The next question is, that amendment S4M-01133.3, in the name of Johann Lamont, which seeks to amend motion S4M-01133, in the name of Kenny MacAskill, on ensuring the integrity of Scots criminal law, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

Motion agreed to,
That the Parliament welcomes the conclusions of the review group chaired by Lord McCluskey on the examination of the relationship between the High Court of the Justiciary and the Supreme Court in criminal cases; welcomes the review group’s comments about the historical independence of the Scottish legal system and its conclusion that this position should be maintained by restoring the High Court to its rightful place at the apex of that system; further welcomes the review group’s suggestion of a certification procedure granted by the High Court of Justiciary for criminal cases; notes the review group’s view that the UK Supreme Court should have a limited jurisdiction, ruling solely on the point of law relating to convention rights arising in criminal cases, and calls on the UK Government to work with the Scottish Government to deliver a solution through the Scotland Bill that reflects the recommendations of the review and preserves the integrity of Scots criminal law.
The next question is, that amendment S4M-01197.2, in the name of Claire Baker, which seeks to amend motion S4M-01197, in the name of Angela Constance, on reducing the time needed to find a permanent home for looked-after children, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

The next question is, that motion S4M-01197, in the name of Angela Constance, on reducing the time needed to find a permanent home for looked-after children, be agreed to.
Motion agreed to,
That the Parliament supports the Scottish Government placing the importance of permanence and stability at the heart of its approach to improving the life chances of looked-after children; acknowledges that there is still some delay in the processes as indicated in the Scottish Children’s Reporter’s Administration report, Care and Permanence Planning for Looked After Children in Scotland; welcomes the Scottish Government’s response to the report, which builds on the work of the Looked After Children Strategic Implementation Group, and agrees that a collaborative multi-agency approach to improving the quality of decisions affecting looked-after children finding permanent placements is required.
That concludes decision time. I thank all members for their co-operation. I am extremely grateful and extremely relieved.
