– in the Scottish Parliament at 5:00 pm on 27 March 2002.
There are no Parliamentary Bureau motions, so we come straight to decision time. I have five questions to put to the chamber as a result of today's business.
The first question is, that amendment S1M-2941.2, in the name of Mr Kenny McAskill, which seeks to amend motion S1M-2941, in the name of Mike Watson, on tourism, be agreed to. Are we agreed?
