It is disgraceful that we have voted on entirely new motions on which there was absolutely no debate—I am thinking of stage 3 proceedings on the Licensing (Scotland) Bill in particular, when a trail of ants would go to the table at the back of the chamber to pick up the latest entirely new amendment as it came in.
