Decision Time

The Presiding Officer (Tricia Marwick)

There are eight questions to be put as a result of today’s business. I remind members that, in relation to the debate on keeping communities safe, if amendment S4M-01285.3, in the name of Kenny MacAskill, is agreed to, amendment S4M-01285.2, in the name of John Lamont, falls.

The first question is, that amendment S4M-01275.1, in the name of Nicola Sturgeon, which seeks to amend motion S4M-01275, in the name of Jackie Baillie, on protecting Scotland’s national health service, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

Members: No.

The Presiding Officer

The result of the division is: For 65, Against 52, Abstentions 0.

Motion, as amended, agreed to,

That the Parliament notes that despite real-terms cuts in the Scottish block grant by the UK Government and the previous UK Labour administration, NHS resource spending in Scotland has been protected; further notes that, over the next three years, NHS boards’ resource budgets will increase by £740 million and in real terms, ensuring that resources are directed to frontline services; recognises that, under the SNP administration, cancer waiting times targets have been met for the first time, waiting times are at record lows, MRSA and Clostridium difficile rates have been cut substantially, day case rates are at an all-time high and length of stay in hospitals at a record low, and welcomes the fact that the SNP administration has rejected the NHS privatisation agenda pursued by both the UK Government and the previous UK Labour administration.

The next question is, that amendment S4M-01285.3, in the name of Kenny MacAskill, which seeks to amend motion S4M-01285, in the name of Johann Lamont, on keeping communities safe, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

The Presiding Officer

The result of the division is: For 65, Against 52, Abstentions 0.

Motion, as amended, agreed to,

That the Parliament notes that Scottish communities have become safer since the current Scottish administration first came to office; notes that crime in Scotland is now at its lowest level in 35 years, that the clear-up rate for all recorded crimes is at its highest level for over 30 years and that the risk of being a victim of crime in Scotland is lower than in England and Wales; notes that, since 2007, violent crime is down by almost a fifth, the number of homicides is down by almost 35%, gun crime is down by almost half and people are significantly more positive about the crime rate in their local area; notes the significant investment made in frontline policing since 2007, with police officer numbers reaching record highs during the last parliamentary session; welcomes the Scottish Government’s commitment to maintaining numbers at 1,000 more than the level that they inherited from the previous Labour and Liberal Democrat administration, and recognises that significant investments and improvements across the justice sector have been delivered in the face of budget cuts from the UK Government and that, while police officer numbers are predicted to fall by more than 16,000 in England and Wales, the Scottish Government is committed to prioritising frontline policing to ensure that Scottish communities remain safe places to live and work.

The Presiding Officer

The result of the division is: For 101, Against 12, Abstentions 4.

Motion, as amended, agreed to,

That the Parliament recognises the importance of high-quality buildings and places and the vital contribution that they make to Scotland’s economy as well as its cultural identity; acknowledges the importance of sharing skills, vision and practice in design and placemaking and the need to address the effects of climate change, engage communities and develop Scotland’s skills base; recognises this, and the previous, administration’s development of architecture, planning and design policies; acknowledges the economic benefit of reusing existing buildings, and calls on the UK Government to reduce VAT for renovations, repairs and home improvements to 5%, which would act as a significant stimulus to the building industry; notes that prioritising the use of brown field sites, in addition to the renovation of existing buildings, would both protect the greenbelt and enhance local communities, and considers that local communities should be an integral part of any regeneration of their local environment or facilities.
