Chamber and committees

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)
