Decision Time
There are nine questions to be put as a result of today’s business. I remind members that, in relation to this afternoon’s debate on the United Kingdom Government’s autumn budget statement and the Scottish economy, if the amendment in the name of Gavin Brown is agreed to, the amendment in the name of Willie Rennie falls.
The first question is, that amendment S4M-01501.3, in the name of Richard Baker, which seeks to amend motion S4M-01501, in the name of John Swinney, on the UK Government’s autumn budget statement and the Scottish economy, be agreed to. Are we agreed?
Members: No.
There will be a division.

The result of the division is: For 64, Against 56, Abstentions 0.
Motion agreed to,
That the Parliament notes the Chancellor’s Autumn Statement and that the Office for Budget Responsibility has demonstrated that the UK Government’s economic and fiscal plan has failed, with a cut of over two thirds in the growth forecast for 2012; agrees that the UK Government’s response falls far short of the urgent action that Scotland needs to boost growth; notes that the Chancellor has proposed only a limited increase in capital budgets and that two thirds of the new capital investment will not be available until 2013, despite the urgent need for a stimulus this year and next; supports the Scottish Government’s call to the UK Government for a targeted, expanded programme of some £2 billion for capital infrastructure investment in Scotland to help offset the 32% real-terms cut to Scotland’s capital budget inflicted by the UK Government; notes that the Scottish Government will support around £9 billion of capital spending over the next three years to deliver new schools, hospitals, houses, roads, water infrastructure, community facilities and improved availability of high speed broadband across Scotland; welcomes the Scottish Government’s infrastructure investment plan, which will provide crucial support for employment, with every additional £100 million of capital invested per year estimated to generate £160 million worth of economic activity and support 1,400 jobs in the wider economy for that year; notes that, as a result of the Scottish Government’s £2.5 billion non-profit distributing capital programme and switching of resources from revenue to capital, infrastructure investment in Scotland will now rise year on year throughout the spending review period; supports the Scottish Government’s actions to boost economic growth through initiatives such as maintaining Scotland as the most competitive environment for business in the UK; supports the Scottish Government’s efforts to boost economic security and household budgets by freezing the council tax, abolishing prescription charges and protecting concessionary travel, and welcomes the success of Scotland’s enterprise agencies in securing major new investments in recent months from international companies.
The next question is, that motion S4M-01510, in the name of Kenny MacAskill, on the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Bill, UK legislation, be agreed to.

I propose to put a single question on motions S4M-01417 to S4M-01420, on the nomination of pension fund trustees for the Scottish parliamentary contributory pension fund. If any member objects to a single question being put, they should please say so now.
