Parliamentary Bureau Motion

The next item of business is consideration of Parliamentary Bureau motion S3M-3669, in the name of Bruce Crawford, on behalf of the Parliamentary Bureau, on the designation of a lead committee.

Motion moved,

That the Parliament agrees that the Justice Committee be designated as the lead committee in consideration of the Criminal Justice and Licensing (Scotland) Bill at Stage 1—[Bruce Crawford.].

The question on that motion will be put at decision time.

I am sure that members will join me in welcoming to the gallery the ambassador of the Republic of Moldova, the high commissioner of New Zealand, the high commissioner of Sri Lanka and the deputy high commissioner of Jamaica. They are all most welcome. [Applause.]
