There is one question to be put as a result of today’s business. The question is, that motion S4M-14560, in the name of Hugh Henry, on the future delivery of social security in Scotland, be agreed to.
Motion agreed to,
That the Parliament notes that, once the Scotland Bill becomes an Act, the responsibility for the delivery of a range of social security powers will pass to the Parliament, including disability living allowance, personal independence payments, carers allowance, the Work Programme and the Regulated Social Fund, as well as some aspects of universal credit and top-up funds; further notes that the Welfare Reform Committee is undertaking an inquiry into the future delivery of social security in Scotland, and would welcome contributions from members on what they consider are the important principles and practical aspects of a new Scottish social security system.
