The result of the division on motion S6M-20921, in the name of Mark Ruskell, on the Greyhound Racing (Offences) (Scotland) Bill at stage 3, is: For 70, Against 27, Abstentions 19.

Motion agreed to,

That the Parliament agrees that the Greyhound Racing (Offences) (Scotland) Bill be passed.

The next question is, that motion S6M-21126, in the name of Graeme Dey, on behalf of the Parliamentary Bureau, on approval of a Scottish statutory instrument, be agreed to.

Motion agreed to,

That the Parliament agrees that the Prisoners (Early Release) (Miscellaneous Amendment and Transitional Provisions) (Scotland) Regulations 2026 [draft] be approved.

Let us hear one another.

Your points are on the record, Mr Kerr. It was the case that I did not hear anyone dissent. It is just a case of making sure that we can all hear one another and that the chair is clear, too.

That concludes decision time.

Meeting closed at 21:15.

There will be a division.

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

The next item of business is consideration of seven Parliamentary Bureau motions. I ask the minister, on behalf of the Parliamentary Bureau, to move motions S6M-21128 to S6M-21131, on approval of SSIs, and motions S6M-21132, S6M-21134 and S6M-21135, on committee meeting times.

Thank you, Mr Whittle. As members will have heard on several occasions, the content of members’ contributions is not a matter for the chair. At this point in the session, members will also be very well aware of the mechanism that exists for corrections that are required.

We move to the division on motion S6M-20921, in the name of Mark Ruskell, on the Greyhound Racing (Offences) (Scotland) Bill at stage 3. Members should cast their votes now.
