The next item of business is stage 3 proceedings on the Land Reform (Scotland) Bill. In dealing with the amendments, members should have before them the bill as amended at stage 2—Scottish Parliament bill 44A—the second marshalled list and the second groupings of amendments. The division bell will sound and proceedings will be suspended for around five minutes for the first division of stage 3. The period of voting for the first division will be 30 seconds; thereafter I will allow a voting period of one minute.
Members should now refer to the marshalled list of amendments.
Section 23—Rent review: 1991 Act tenancies
Amendments 350 to 355 moved—[Douglas Lumsden]—and agreed to.
Amendment 229 moved—[Mairi Gougeon].
