Decision Time

The Presiding Officer (Alex Fergusson):

There are nine questions to be put as a result of today's business.

In relation to this morning's debate on sustainable public transport systems, I should point out that if the amendment in the name of Stewart Stevenson is agreed to, the amendment in the name of Tavish Scott will fall. The first question is, that amendment S3M-127.3.1, in the name of Alex Johnstone, which seeks to amend amendment S3M-127.3, in the name of Stewart Stevenson, on sustainable public transport systems, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

The result of the division is: For 66, Against 59, Abstentions 0.

Motion, as amended, agreed to.

Resolved,

That the Parliament recognises the different policy positions of various political parties; notes that the Scottish Government has invited the Auditor General to consider the approach to financial and risk management taken in the preparation of the Edinburgh Tram and Edinburgh Airport Rail Link proposals, and welcomes the fact that ministers will report to the Parliament on this matter before the summer recess and calls on the Scottish Executive to bring forward a motion for parliamentary debate within its own time on these issues.

The next question is, that amendment S3M-126.3, in the name of Fiona Hyslop, which seeks to amend motion S3M-126, in the name of Hugh Henry, on skills and vocational education, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

Members:

No.
