The next item of business is consideration of motion S6M-10958, in the name of Shona Robison, on Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Bill, which is United Kingdom legislation. I call Shona Robison to move the motion.
Motion moved,
That the Parliament agrees that the relevant provisions of the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Bill, introduced in the House of Commons on 22 September 2022, and subsequently amended in relation to the Register of Overseas Entities, so far as these matters fall within the legislative competence of the Scottish Parliament or alter the executive competence of the Scottish Ministers, should be considered by the UK Parliament.—[

The House of Commons is one of the houses of parliament. Here, elected MPs (elected by the "commons", i.e. the people) debate. In modern times, nearly all power resides in this house. In the commons are 650 MPs, as well as a speaker and three deputy speakers.
