There are two questions to be put as a result of today’s business. The first question is on motion S6M-18992, on the Housing (Scotland) Bill at stage 3. As it is a motion to pass a bill, the question must be decided by division. I would be grateful if members, who have been voting throughout the afternoon, were to refresh their screens.
The question is, that motion S6M-18992, in the name of Màiri McAllan, on the Housing (Scotland) Bill at stage 3, be agreed to. Members should cast their votes now.
