Decision Time

I have 10 questions to put to the chamber tonight. Members should pay attention, because this is quite complicated.

The first question is, that amendment S1M-1725.2, in the name of Rhona Brankin, which seeks to amend motion S1M-1725, in the name of Jamie McGrigor, on Scotland's fishing industry, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

No.

I thought that we were all agreed. I beg your pardon. It is the agriculture amendment on which we are all agreed. There will be a division.

The result of the division is: For 55, Against 55, Abstentions 0.

I therefore give my casting vote for the motion as amended.

Motion, as amended, agreed to.

Resolved,

That the Parliament supports the aims of the cod recovery plan; acknowledges the financial sacrifices made by the Scottish fishing fleet towards that end, and calls upon the Scottish Executive to utilise funding from the Financial Instrument for Fisheries Guidance or other appropriate financial resources to provide financial support to our fishermen during the twelve week closure period in the form of an immediate compensated tie-up scheme and other suitable measures and to outline its plans for the protection of other stocks such as haddock and programme for vessel decommissioning at the earliest opportunity.

The fourth question is, that amendment S1M-1726.2, in the name of Ross Finnie, which seeks to amend motion S1M-1726, in the name of Alex Johnstone, on crisis in rural Scotland, be agreed to.

Amendment agreed to.

The fifth question is, that amendment S1M-1726.1, in the name of Fergus Ewing, which seeks to amend motion S1M-1726, in the name of Alex Johnstone, on crisis in rural Scotland, be agreed to.

Amendment agreed to.

The sixth question is, that motion S1M-1726, in the name of Alex Johnstone, on crisis in rural Scotland, as amended, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

No.

There will be a division.

On a point of order, Presiding Officer. There seems to be some confusion about which amendment amended the motion that we are voting on.

I appealed at the beginning of decision time for members to pay attention, because the procedure is complicated today.

I have been paying attention, Presiding Officer.

I am not casting any aspersions. I am putting to the chamber the question, that motion S1M-1726, as amended, be agreed to.

On a point of order, Presiding Officer. Can you clarify for me which amendment amended the motion?

Both. The first amendment was accepted without division, and the second was accepted without division.

No it was not.

It was. I am sorry, but members must pay attention, or this is what happens.

On a point of order, Presiding Officer. On the question on the second amendment, I shouted no, but I do not think that you heard in the babble of noise.

I certainly did not hear a no. With respect, if someone shouted no and I did not hear them, they should have raised that before I moved on to the next question.

On a point of order, Presiding Officer.

Let us hear from the convener of the Procedures Committee.

Presiding Officer, could you confirm that it is not competent under the standing orders to raise a point of order during decision time?

I am afraid that you are not quite right. It is not competent to do so during a vote, but it is competent to do so during decision time. We are between votes at the moment.

I put the question again. The question is—

On a point of order, Presiding Officer. The reason I asked which amendment had amended the motion was precisely because I had shouted no when the question was put on Fergus Ewing's amendment.

I am sorry, but it is too late. If members—[Interruption.] Order. First, it would help if there was quiet when I am putting the question. That is a point on which we should all agree, because it is difficult to hear members shouting anything if there is a babble going on. I appealed for order right at the beginning. Secondly, if members shout and I do not hear, that should be raised immediately, before I move to the next question. [Members: "It was."] It was not. I said that the question was therefore agreed to. At that point we moved to the next question. It was agreed that both amendments were carried.

I am now putting to the chamber the question on the motion, as amended by the two amendments—if members do not like it, they can vote against it. That is the point that I am making.

The question is, that motion S1M-1726, as amended by the two amendments, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

No.

There is no agreement. There will be a division.
