On a point of order, Presiding Officer.

There is an awful lot of misunderstanding in the debate about whether judges in Scotland can hand down a life sentence.

Does the member believe that someone convicted of murdering a police officer should be released from prison—yes or no?

I do not recognise Mr McArthur’s characterisation.

I will.

Will the member take an intervention?

I do not thank Mr Findlay for wasting my time with his intervention. Of course I do not think that, Mr Findlay; just sit down.

I am afraid that the member is completely missing the point about my proposition.

I ask Mr Johnson to be very quick.

Will the member take an intervention?
