Decision Time

The Presiding Officer (Alex Fergusson):

There are nine questions to be put as a result of today's business. Members should be aware—please pay attention—that if amendment S3M-3174.1, in the name of Richard Baker, on protecting Scotland's communities—the Scottish Government's offender management plan, is agreed to, the other two amendments to motion S3M-3174 will fall. Members should also note that if amendment S3M-3174.2, in the name of Bill Aitken, is agreed to, amendment S3M-3174.3, in the name of Robert Brown, will fall.

The first question is, that amendment S3M-3173.1, in the name of John Park, which seeks to amend motion S3M-3173, in the name of Jim Mather, on homecoming and its potential to support sustainable economic growth, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

Members:

No.

There will be a division.

Motion, as amended, agreed to.

Resolved,

That the Parliament welcomes the publication on 17 December 2008 of Protecting Scotland's Communities: Fair, Fast and Flexible Justice, which sets out the Scottish Government's strategy to deliver a coherent offender management strategy built on a robust regime of community penalties and payback and proportionate management of offenders sentenced to prison; recognises that community sentences that are completed speedily and enforced with rigour offer greater benefits to communities and individuals than short prison sentences and that their planned expansion must be adequately resourced; calls on the Scottish Government to incorporate in its offender management strategy effective action to tackle the underlying causes of crime and factors and circumstances known to have a link with offending behaviour; reaffirms the importance of judicial independence free from executive direction, and looks forward to constructive engagement with the Scottish Government on the detailed implementation of the programme.
