Chamber and committees

The next group is on new determination of entitlement after error. Amendment 106, in the name of Jeremy Balfour, is grouped with amendments 107 to 115.

I call amendments 109 to 111, in the name of Jeremy Balfour—

We move to a new group, on assistance given in error. Amendment 25 in the name of the cabinet secretary is grouped with amendments 26, 29 to 51 and 98.

No other member wishes to speak at this point. Cabinet secretary, would you like to wind up?

Mr Balfour, you have already moved amendment 3. Are you pressing or withdrawing it?

The result of the division is: For 4, Against 4, Abstentions 0.

We again have a tie. As convener, I have a personal vote and a casting vote, and I will again use my casting vote in the same way that I use my personal vote. I therefore vote against amendment 3, so the amendment falls.

Amendment 3 disagreed to.

Amendment 4 not moved.

There will be a division.

For

Balfour, Jeremy (Lothian) (Con)
Clark, Katy (West Scotland) (Lab)
McCall, Roz (Mid Scotland and Fife) (Con)
O’Kane, Paul (West Scotland) (Lab)

Against

Doris, Bob (Glasgow Maryhill and Springburn) (SNP)
McNair, Marie (Clydebank and Milngavie) (SNP)
Stewart, Kevin (Aberdeen Central) (SNP)
Torrance, David (Kirkcaldy) (SNP)

I call Mr Balfour to wind up and to press or seek to withdraw amendment 116.

The question is, that amendment 116 be agreed to. Are we agreed?

Members: No.

There will be a division.

Balfour, Jeremy (Lothian) (Con)
