Motion without Notice

The Presiding Officer (Tricia Marwick)

Before we proceed to decision time, I inform members that the subject of tonight’s members’ business debate in the name of Marco Biagi, on Edinburgh’s housing policy 10, is now the subject of active proceedings in the Court of Session.

At the time that the business managers considered nominations for this week’s business, there were no active court proceedings. That changed as of yesterday.

I have consulted the member in charge and all the business managers, and I am minded to accept a motion without notice from the Minister for Parliamentary Business to postpone tonight’s members’ business debate to a later date.

Motion moved,

That, under Rule 7.5.1, the Members’ Business debate on motion S4M-10800 in the name of Marco Biagi be postponed.—[Joe FitzPatrick.]

Motion agreed to.
