Decision Time

The Presiding Officer (Sir David Steel):



Before we come to decision time, I must announce a correction to the result of the vote last Thursday on amendment S1M-230.2 on European structural funds. Because of a technical fault, a member's vote was not recorded; the amended result is that there were 30 votes for the amendment, 73 votes against it and one abstention.

There are four questions to be put as a result of today's business. The first question is that amendment S1M-240.1, in the name of Mr Alex Salmond, which seeks to amend motion S1M-240, in the name of Ms Wendy Alexander, on the Scottish Executive's compact with the voluntary sector, be agreed to. Are we all agreed?

Members:

No.

In that case, there will be a division.
