Motions moved,

That the Parliament agrees that the following change to committee membership will apply from 7 December 2020—

Neil Bibby to replace Anas Sarwar as a member of the Public Audit and Post-legislative Scrutiny Committee.

That the Parliament agrees that—

Gordon MacDonald be appointed to replace Gail Ross as a member of the Local Government and Communities Committee;

Gail Ross be appointed to replace Willie Coffey as a member of the Public Audit and Post-legislative Scrutiny Committee;

John Mason be appointed to replace Shona Robison as a member of the COVID-19 Committee.—[Miles Briggs]

The question on those motions will also be put at decision time.
