[S1M-68] Decision Time — 24 Jun 1999 at 17:00

This looks like the vote on S1M-68

The description in the bulletin on 1999-06-23 is:

*S1M-68 Henry McLeish: That the Parliament notes that unemployment in Scotland is falling and is low by historical and international standards, and that employment is increasing, and looks forward to the Executive building on Scotland’s economic success by investing in jobs and skills, promoting a stable and competitive environment for enterprise and encouraging the growth of new businesses. Supported by: Nicol Stephen.

Text Introducing Division:

No.

I hear an occasional very feeble no on the left. There will be a division.

The question is, that motion S1M-68, in the name of Henry McLeish, be agreed to. Members should vote yes to agree to the motion now.
