Abstentions

Finnie, John (Highlands and Islands) (Ind)

The Presiding Officer

The result of the division is: For 60, Against 51, Abstentions 1.

Motion agreed to,

That the Parliament welcomes the positive signs of recovery in the Scottish economy over the past year; agrees that this recovery has been delayed by the UK Government’s economic mismanagement and cuts to capital spending; recognises that Scotland’s long-term potential will continue to be hampered by the large gap between rich and poor, the increasing concentration of economic activity in London and south east England and growing imbalances in the structure of the UK economy, which have been created by successive UK administrations, and agrees that, as set out in Scotland’s Future: Your Guide to an Independent Scotland, the powers of independence will enable future Scottish administrations to build a more resilient and fairer economy by combining powers over employment policy, migration, industrial policy and taxation to secure stronger levels of economic growth and job creation and create a virtuous circle where the full benefits of increased economic growth and participation are available to be reinvested for the benefit of all the people of Scotland.

The Presiding Officer

The next question is, that motion S4M-08719, in the name of Joe FitzPatrick, on the designation of a lead committee, be agreed to.

Motion agreed to,

That the Parliament agrees that the Local Government and Regeneration Committee be designated as the lead committee in consideration of the Disabled Persons’ Parking Badges (Scotland) Bill at stage 1.
