The next question is, that amendment S4M-04719.1, in the name of Annabel Goldie, which seeks to amend motion S4M-04719, in the name of Roseanna Cunningham, on the road to recovery drugs strategy, be agreed to.

The next question is, that amendment S4M-04719.2, in the name of Willie Rennie, which seeks to amend motion S4M-04719, in the name of Roseanna Cunningham, on the road to recovery drugs strategy, be agreed to.
Amendment agreed to.
The next question is, that motion S4M-04719, in the name of Roseanna Cunningham, on the road to recovery drugs strategy, as amended, be agreed to.
Motion, as amended, agreed to,
That the Parliament recognises the progress made in delivering Scotland’s national drug strategy, The Road to Recovery, and in particular the continued efforts and dedication of all those working to make recovery from problem drug use a reality; acknowledges the significant progress made in improving access to treatment and reducing waiting times, and calls on all relevant national and local agencies to continue to drive this long-term strategy forward with a focus on improving all aspects of quality with regard to how recovery is delivered, informed by advice on opiate replacement therapies arising from the review being carried out by the Chief Medical Officer, supported by an independent expert group; believes that the success of the national drugs strategy derives from flexibility of approach toward and availability of options for those seeking recovery from problem drug use; considers that these objectives would be usefully served by inclusion in the review of an inquiry into why there is underused capacity in rehabilitation facilities and consideration by the review of how more information might be made available to methadone patients about their treatment programme; recognises the harm reduction value of opiate replacement therapies as part of the recovery strategy, particularly in terms of reducing the transmission of serious blood-borne viruses such as HIV and hepatitis C, and considers it vital that a wide range of treatment options are available to ensure that professionals are able to offer a package of treatment and support that is person-centred and tailored to the specific needs and aspirations of the individual.
The next question is, that motion S4M-04737, in the name of Kenny MacAskill, on the Prisons (Interference with Wireless Telegraphy) Bill, which is United Kingdom legislation, be agreed to.
Motion agreed to,
That the Parliament agrees that the relevant provisions of the Prisons (Interference with Wireless Telegraphy) Bill introduced in the House of Commons on 20 June 2012, relating to the interference with wireless telegraphy in order to prevent the use of electronic communications devices (including mobile telephones) in, or detect or investigate the use of such devices within, prisons and young offenders institutions, so far as these matters fall within the executive competence of the Scottish Ministers, should be considered by the UK Parliament.
