The Deputy Presiding Officer

The result of the division is: For 98, Against 12, Abstentions 0.

Motion, as amended, agreed to,

That the Parliament notes the publication of the Land Reform Review Group’s interim report; recognises that the Land Reform Review Group was appointed by the Scottish Government as an advisory group independent of Scottish ministers to offer a “radical review of land reform”; believes that ownership of land is an economic and social issue; recognises that the Scottish Government has the power to deliver further land reform now; supports greater diversification of land ownership in Scotland, and calls on the Scottish Government to demonstrate a commitment to radical and bold land reform.

The next question is, that amendment S4M-06843.2, in the name of Michael Russell, which seeks to amend motion S4M-06843, in the name of Hugh Henry, on student support, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

Members: No.
