Victims and Witnesses (Scotland) Bill: Financial Resolution

The Deputy Presiding Officer (Elaine Smith)

The next item of business is consideration of motion S4M-08039, in the name of John Swinney, on the financial resolution for the Victims and Witnesses (Scotland) Bill.

I call on the cabinet secretary to move the motion.

Motion moved,

That the Parliament, for the purposes of any Act of the Scottish Parliament resulting from the Victims and Witnesses (Scotland) Bill, agrees to any charge or payment in relation to which Rule 9.12.4 of the Parliament’s Standing Orders applies arising in consequence of the Act.—[John Swinney.]

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