As an amendment to motion S5M-17503 in the name of Liam Kerr (Whole Life Custody Sentences), leave out from "Scotland's" to end and insert "the sentencing options available to the courts, including in relation to the most serious offenders, should be kept under review, and further believes that any changes to sentencing powers must follow an evidence-led debate about what is in the public interest, and full consultation with all relevant parties, including the Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service, Scottish Prison Service, Parole Board for Scotland and wider public."
