Advanced Research and Invention Agency Bill

The Presiding Officer (Alison Johnstone)

The next item of business is consideration of a legislative consent motion. I ask Jamie Hepburn to move motion S6M-02430, on the Advanced Research and Invention Agency Bill, which is United Kingdom legislation.

Motion moved,

That the Parliament agrees that the relevant provisions of the Advanced Research and Invention Agency Bill, introduced in the House of Commons on 2 March 2021, relating to research and innovation, so far as these matters fall within the legislative competence of the Scottish Parliament, should be considered by the UK Parliament.—[Jamie Hepburn]

The question on the motion will be put at decision time.
