There will be a division.

The result of the division on motion S6M-20731, in the name of Jackie Baillie, on the safety of the Queen Elizabeth university hospital, is: For 63, Against 58, Abstentions 0.

Motion agreed to,

That the Parliament is concerned that the Scottish Government is unable to state clearly that the ventilation and water systems at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital have been validated as meeting required safety requirements; recognises that thousands of patients are treated safely and expertly cared for by NHS staff in the hospital every year; welcomes the establishment of a Safety and Public Confidence Oversight Group, and calls on the Scottish Government to set out by what date it intends to carry out the risk assessment of the hospital’s ventilation system, as recommended by the inquiry, what mitigations are currently in place to ensure that the water is safe to use, how it intends to protect at-risk patients in areas that have not been validated, and when this validation will be carried out and the documentation shared with whistleblowers and infection control.

I remind members that, if the amendment in the name of Angela Constance is agreed to, the amendment in the name of Liam Kerr will fall.

The next question is, that amendment S6M-20730.1, in the name of Angela Constance, which seeks to amend motion S6M-20730, in the name of Pauline McNeill, on community policing, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

Members: No.

The next question is, that motion S6M-20718, in the name of Ivan McKee, on a motion on legislative consent for the Finance (No 2) Bill, be agreed to.

Motion agreed to,

That the Parliament agrees that the relevant provisions of the Finance (No. 2) Bill, introduced in the House of Commons on 2 December 2025, relating to clause 8 (Scottish and Welsh property rates set by Scottish Parliament and Senedd) and schedule 2, part 1 (Scotland), so far as these matters pursue a devolved purpose and alter the executive competence of the Scottish Ministers, should be considered by the UK Parliament.

I propose to ask a single question on eight Parliamentary Bureau motions.

As no member has objected, the question is that motions S6M-2750 to S6M-2754, on approval of Scottish statutory instruments; motion S6M-20755, on referral of an SSI; motion S6M-20756, on designation of a lead committee; and motion S6M-20757, on committee meeting times, in the name of Graeme Dey, be agreed to.

Motions agreed to,

That the Parliament agrees that the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982 (Licensing of Non-surgical Procedures) Order 2026 [draft] be approved.

That the Parliament agrees that the Criminal Legal Aid and Assistance by Way of Representation (Miscellaneous Amendment) (Scotland) Regulations 2026 [draft] be approved.

That the Parliament agrees that, under Rule 12.3.3B of Standing Orders, the Net Zero, Energy and Transport Committee can meet, if necessary, at the same time as a meeting of the Parliament between 2.00 pm and 2.50 pm on Wednesday 25 February 2026.

The next item of business is consideration of motion S6M-20718, which is on legislative consent for the Finance (No 2) Bill, which is United Kingdom legislation.
