Modern Slavery Bill

The Presiding Officer (Tricia Marwick)

The next item of business is consideration of motion S4M-11999, in the name of Michael Matheson, on the Modern Slavery Bill, which is United Kingdom legislation.

Motion moved,

That the Parliament agrees that the relevant provisions of the Modern Slavery Bill, introduced in the House of Commons on 10 June 2014, relating to enforcement powers in relation to ships and the Anti-Slavery Commissioner, so far as these matters fall within the legislative competence of the Scottish Parliament or alter the functions of the Scottish Ministers, should be considered by the UK Parliament.—[Michael Matheson.]

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