– in the Scottish Parliament at 5:00 pm on 24 January 2002.
We will need a lot of concentration for decision time today, because we have a record 13 questions.
The first question is, that amendment S1M-2631.2, in the name of Peter Peacock, which seeks to amend the motion S1M-2631, in the name of Tommy Sheridan, on the abolition of council tax, be agreed to. Are we agreed?
There will be a division.
