Decision Time
There are eight questions to be put as a result of today's business. Members should note that if amendment S3M-3528.3, in the name of Sarah Boyack, is agreed to, amendment S3M-3528.2, in the name of Robin Harper, will fall.
The first question is, that motion S3M-3128, in the name of Jackie Baillie, on the Disabled Persons' Parking Places (Scotland) Bill, be agreed to.
Motion agreed to,
That the Parliament agrees that the Disabled Persons' Parking Places (Scotland) Bill be passed.
I am delighted to say that the Disabled Persons' Parking Places (Scotland) Bill is passed. [Applause.]
The next question is, that amendment S3M-3528.3, in the name of Sarah Boyack, which seeks to amend motion S3M-3528, in the name of Richard Lochhead, on the marine bill consultation, be agreed to. Are we all agreed?
