The result of the division is: For 63, Against 16, Abstentions 33.
Motion agreed to,
That the Parliament is concerned that the welfare cuts of the UK Government are a direct attack on the living standards of sick and disabled people, women, children and unemployed people; considers that far from being part of a “moral crusade”, these cuts seek to punish vulnerable people in society; is concerned that the rollout of universal credit and personal independence payments has become a chaotic shambles and a waste of money and considers that the UK Government should call a halt to the rollout now, and recognises that the way to have a properly functioning and fair social security system in Scotland is to have social security run by the Scottish Parliament for the people of Scotland.
The next question is, that motion S4M-09210, in the name of John Swinney, on the Deep Sea Mining Bill, which is United Kingdom legislation, be agreed to.
Motion agreed to,
That the Parliament agrees that the relevant provisions of the Deep Sea Mining Private Members’ Bill introduced in the House of Commons on 19 June 2013 relating to the amendment of the Deep Sea Mining (Temporary Provisions) Act 1981, so far as these matters fall within the legislative competence of the Scottish Parliament or alter the executive competence of the Scottish Ministers, should be considered by the UK Parliament.
That concludes decision time.
