Motion, as amended, agreed to,

That the Parliament welcomes the development of plans to refurbish or replace University Hospital Monklands; notes that these plans will ensure that the new hospital will have state-of-the-art facilities and provide a range of specialist services for patients across Lanarkshire as well as allow it to continue to be the local hospital for the patients living in the Monklands’ catchment area; further notes that the new hospital will retain an A&E department along with associated specialist services; acknowledges that a public consultation has been undertaken regarding the possible sites for the new hospital; believes that any decision for the new hospital’s location must, as a priority, help to reduce the level of health inequalities in the Monklands area and across Lanarkshire, and further believes that the choice of location must take full account of the views of the patients who will be served by the new hospital, as well as other key factors, such as accessibility, transport links, travel times and providing the best return to the NHS in terms of patient care.

I remind members that, if amendment S5M-14406.4, in the name of Aileen Campbell, is agreed to, amendment S5M-14406.3, in the name of Michelle Ballantyne, will fall.

The next question is, that amendment S5M-14406.4, in the name of Aileen Campbell, which seeks to amend motion S5M-14406, in the name of Elaine Smith, on ending austerity, poverty and inequality, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

Members: No.

There will be a division.

Motion, as amended, agreed to,

That the Parliament notes with concern the recent publication of a number of reports that show that deep-rooted poverty and inequality persists in Scotland’s communities; notes that the Scottish Government has used devolved powers to challenge and address root causes of poverty and inequality, including setting targets to help eradicate child poverty by 2030, fully mitigating the so-called bedroom tax, launching the Carer’s Allowance Supplement, extending access to free sanitary products, implementing recommendations from the Homelessness and Rough Sleeping Action Group, increasing the Fair Food Fund and committing to a Disability Employment Action Plan; believes that UK Government policies are a significant driver of poverty and inequality, including welfare reforms that will lead to an annual cut to people in Scotland of £3.7 billion by 2020-21; calls on the UK Government to publish its analysis of the impact of Universal Credit on people’s incomes, and further calls on it to immediately halt the roll-out in Scotland and use the UK Budget to address its fundamental flaws, reinstating work allowances, reversing the two-child limit and lifting the benefits freeze.

I propose to ask a single question on the three Parliamentary Bureau motions. If any member objects to a single question being put, they should say so now.

There being no objections, the question is, that motions S5M-14429 to S5M-14431, in the name of Graeme Dey, on behalf of the Parliamentary Bureau, be agreed to.

Motions agreed to.

That the Parliament agrees that the Early Years Assistance (Best Start Grants) (Scotland) Regulations 2018 [draft] be approved.

That the Parliament agrees that the First-tier Tribunal for Scotland (Chambers) Amendment Regulations 2018 [draft] be approved.

That the Parliament agrees that the First-tier Tribunal for Scotland (Allocation of Functions to the Social Security Chamber) Regulations 2018 [draft] be approved.
