Decision Time
There are six questions to be put as a result of today’s business. I remind members that, in relation to the debate on the infrastructure investment plan, if the amendment in the name of Lewis Macdonald is agreed to, the amendment in the name of Alex Johnstone falls.
The first question is, that amendment S4M-01585.1, in the name of Jackie Baillie, which seeks to amend motion S4M-01585, in the name of Nicola Sturgeon, on the integration of health and social care, be agreed to.
Amendment agreed to.
The next question is, that motion S4M-01585, in the name of Nicola Sturgeon, on the integration of health and social care, as amended, be agreed to.
Motion, as amended, agreed to,
That the Parliament recognises the improvements achieved in terms of adult health and social care services since it was established; further recognises, particularly with regard to the needs of Scotland’s older people, that the integration of services needs to be improved to deliver better health and social care services; notes that the cornerstone of reform should be nationally agreed outcomes and that these reforms will be judged by the delivery of specific goals, such as reducing the number of delayed discharges, which directly impact on the health and care experience of older citizens; notes that services should be characterised by strong and committed clinical and care professional leadership; notes that NHS boards and local authorities will work together to produce integrated budgets that will bring to an end the cost-shunting between the NHS and local authorities that currently occurs; notes that the Scottish Government will continue to work with partners in the NHS, local government, the third and independent sectors and professional bodies to take these reforms forward, and welcomes the Scottish Government’s acceptance of the need for legislative underpinning following the conclusions of the Expert Group on Future Options for Social Care established by Scottish Labour.
The next question is, that amendment S4M-01584.3, in the name of Lewis Macdonald, which seeks to amend motion S4M-01584, in the name of Alex Neil, on the infrastructure investment plan, be agreed to. Are we agreed?
Members: No.
There will be a division.

Motion agreed to,
That the Parliament notes the importance of infrastructure investment to delivering sustainable economic growth, managing the transition to a low-carbon economy, supporting delivery of efficient and high quality public services and supporting employment and opportunity across Scotland; notes the significant investment underway in a wide range of projects to deliver new schools, hospitals, houses, roads, water infrastructure, community facilities and improved availability of high-speed broadband across Scotland; supports the long-term commitment to continue and build on these investments; supports the Scottish Government’s use of a broad range of funding methods for investment to help offset the 32% real-terms cut to Scotland’s capital budget inflicted by the UK Government, and welcomes the publication of the Scottish Government’s Infrastructure Investment Plan 2011, setting out the Scottish Government’s intentions through to 2030.
On a point of order, Presiding Officer. My console has still not cleared and my votes are not being recorded.
We could suspend for a couple of minutes to check whether your vote has been recorded, but it would not make any difference to the outcome of the vote. We will therefore continue.
The next question is, that motion S4M-01581, in the name of Bruce Crawford, on committee membership, be agreed to.
Motion agreed to,
That the Parliament agrees that—
Mark McDonald be appointed to replace Derek Mackay as a member of the Finance Committee; and
Colin Keir be appointed to replace Mark McDonald as a member of the Public Audit Committee.
