The question is, that amendment 193 be agreed to. Are we agreed?

Members: No.

The First Minister will now take questions on the issues that were raised in his statement. I intend to allow around 20 minutes for questions, after which we will move on to the next item of business. I would be grateful if members who wish to put a question were to press their request-to-speak button.

The next question is, that motion S6M-20575, in the name of Graeme Dey, on behalf of the Parliamentary Bureau, on approval of a Scottish statutory instrument, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

Members: No.

The result of the division on motion S6M-20575, in the name of Graeme Dey, is: For 110, Against 8, Abstentions 0.

Motion agreed to,

That the Parliament agrees that the Land and Buildings Transaction Tax (Investment Zones Relief) (Scotland) Order 2026 [draft] be approved.

That concludes decision time.

The next question is, that amendment S6M-20561.3, in the name of Gillian Mackay, which seeks to amend motion S6M-20561, in the name of Anas Sarwar, on the role of political decision making in NHS scandals, be agreed to.

Amendment agreed to.

Members will note that, despite extending the previous time limit by 30 minutes, we will shortly reach the next time limit and we still have a further group to debate. As a consequence, I am minded to accept a motion without notice that, for the purposes of this item of business, the last sentence of rule 9.8.5A be suspended. I invite Graeme Dey to move the motion.

Motion moved,

Motion agreed to.

I am minded to accept a motion without notice, under rule 9.8.5A, that the time limit for debate on amendments be extended by 30 minutes. I invite Graeme Dey to move the motion.

Motion moved,

Motion agreed to.

Amendment 41 moved—[Mairi Gougeon].
