The motion

As an amendment to motion S5M-20625 in the name of Fiona Hyslop (Recognising Scotland in Europe), leave out from "the importance of continuing" to end and insert "that decisions about flag protocol on the parliamentary estate are rightly reserved to the Scottish Parliamentary Corporate Body (SPCB); recognises that the SPCB has already made a decision on this matter; believes such action to be unprecedented and deleterious to the norms of this Parliament, and regrets that parliamentary time is being used to debate flag protocol when such time is limited and could, more rightly, be spent on debating issues such as health, justice and education."
