Decision Time

The Presiding Officer (Ken Macintosh)

There are four questions to be put as a result of today’s business. I remind members that if the amendment in the name of Jackson Carlaw is agreed to, the amendment in the name of Lewis Macdonald falls.

The first question is, that amendment S5M-01412.2, in the name of Jackson Carlaw, which seeks to amend motion S5M-01412, in the name of Michael Russell, on the implications of the European Union referendum result and United Kingdom negotiating position, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

Members: No.

The Presiding Officer

The result of the division is: For 87, Against 34, Abstentions 0.

Motion, as amended, agreed to,

That the Parliament recognises the importance of EU membership to Scotland and welcomes the Prime Minister’s assurance that she will not trigger Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty until there is an agreed UK approach and objectives for negotiations; agrees that Scotland’s interests are best served within the EU and that a key objective must be for Scotland and the UK to remain inside the EU Single Market; supports the Scottish Government participating fully in all negotiations between the UK Government and the EU in the run-up to, and during, the Article 50 process, while consulting and reporting back to the Parliament on its objectives and priorities, and supports an approach that protects Scotland’s democratic and economic interests, social protection, the principle of solidarity and the ability to influence decision-making within the EU.

The Presiding Officer
