There are no Parliamentary Bureau motions today, so we move straight to decision time. Members who were here earlier know that not all the consoles are working. Is every member seated at a console that still has a microphone?

Members:

indicated agreement.

In that case, I do not need to extend the voting time and we will have the usual 30 seconds. I would have been prepared to extend it had there been a problem.

The first question is, that amendment S1M-508.2, in the name of John Swinney, which seeks to amend motion S1M-508, in the name of Nicol Stephen, on the knowledge economy, be agreed to. Are we agreed?

Members:

No.

There will be a division.

On a point of order.

Sorry, we cannot have a point of order during the vote.

I am having trouble with the voting button.

That might well be, but I cannot take a point of order at the moment. You can raise your point of order immediately after the division.

The third question is, that motion S1M-508, in the name of Nicol Stephen, on the knowledge economy, be agreed to.

Motion agreed to.

That the Parliament recognises that our future prosperity depends upon success in taking up the challenges and opportunities of the Knowledge Economy and that the building of a Knowledge Economy, which has as its hallmarks lifelong learning, knowledge, skills, innovation, enterprise and social justice for all, is essential to a modern and more prosperous Scotland.
