Decision Time

The Presiding Officer (Tricia Marwick)

There are nine questions to be put as a result of today’s business. I remind members that, in relation to the debate on policing in Scotland, if the amendment in the name of Kenny MacAskill is agreed to, the amendment in the name of John Lamont falls.

The first question is, that amendment S4M-05087.2, in the name of Kenny MacAskill, which seeks to amend motion S4M-05087, in the name of Lewis Macdonald, on policing in Scotland, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

Members: No.

The Presiding Officer

The result of the division is: For 63, Against 41, Abstentions 14.

Motion, as amended, agreed to,

That the Parliament notes that the Chief Constable has direction and control of the Police Service of Scotland and is responsible for its day to day administration; welcomes the Scottish Government’s commitment to providing 1,000 extra police officers in Scotland’s communities, with a total of 17,454 officers on 30 September 2012, an increase of 1,220 on the 2007 figure; welcomes the contribution provided by 6,955 police staff, an increase of 65 over the last quarter; notes that crime is at a 37-year low and public confidence is high; notes that the overall number of firearms offences in Scotland has more than halved since 2006-07, with a decrease of 21% in the number of firearms offences recorded between 2010-11 and 2011-12, and recognises that this is testament to the hard work of police officers and staff working in policing in Scotland.

The next question is, that amendment S4M-05088.1, in the name of Alex Neil, which seeks to amend motion S4M-05088, in the name of Jackie Baillie, on Scotland’s health service, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

Motion, as amended, agreed to,

That the Parliament recognises the remarkable work of NHS Scotland staff in caring for the nation; welcomes the recognition from Audit Scotland that the NHS’s finances have been carefully managed and that, for the fourth year running, all NHS boards have met their financial targets on revenue and capital; further welcomes that the Scottish Government has instructed the most comprehensive audit ever to be conducted into waiting times to ensure openness and transparency, and commends the decision of the Scottish Government to provide above real-terms resource funding to the territorial NHS boards to protect frontline services.
