The next item of business is consideration of business motions S6M-11144, on a stage 1 timetable, and S6M-11145, on a stage 1 extension. I call George Adam, on behalf of the Parliamentary Bureau, to move the motions.

Motions moved,

That the Parliament agrees that consideration of the Abortion Services (Safe Access Zones) (Scotland) Bill at stage 1 be completed by 3 May 2024.

That the Parliament agrees that consideration of the Bankruptcy and Diligence (Scotland) Bill at stage 1 be extended to 23 February 2024.—[George Adam]

Motions agreed to.

I propose to ask a single question on five Parliamentary Bureau motions. Does any member object?

Members: No.

That concludes decision time.

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

There are four questions to be put as a result of today’s business. The first question is, that amendment S6M-11127.2, in the name of Russell Findlay, which seeks to amend motion S6M-11127, in the name of Siobhian Brown, on cashback for communities, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

Members: No.
