Appointments to the Scottish Fiscal Commission

As an amendment to motion S4M-10430 in the name of John Swinney (Appointments to the Scottish Fiscal Commission), leave out from "supports" to end and insert "considers that all three of the Scottish Government nominations to the commission are of a very high standard; believes however that appointments to the Council of Economic Advisers and the Scottish Fiscal Commission should not be held simultaneously; supports the nomination of Professor Leith, and further supports the nominations of Lady Rice and Professor Hughes-Hallett, subject to their standing down from the Council of Economic Advisers."
