Women and Girls’ Safety on Public Transport (Amendment 1)
The question is, that amendment S6M-08122.1, in the name of Neil Bibby, be agreed to. Members should cast their votes now.
S6M-08122.1: As an amendment to motion S6M-08122 in the name of Jenny Gilruth (Women and Girls’ Safety on Public Transport), insert at end "; believes that in order for women and girls to feel safe and be safe, the public transport network needs to be accessible and properly staffed; rejects proposals for any cuts to ScotRail ticket office opening hours, which would be a retrograde step in this regard, and calls for assurances that trade unions and women’s organisations will be actively included in the work for safety on public transport."

Original motion(S6M-08122):
That Parliament notes the publication of new Scottish Government research on Women and Girls’ Safety on Public Transport; encourages operators, police authorities and other stakeholders to adopt the recommendations put forward by the report; regrets that women and girls are adapting their behaviour to try to feel safe when travelling or working on public transport; notes that wider systemic changes, supported by more practical interventions, are required, and supports a commitment to engage stakeholders in the Scottish transport sector in a summit, which will progress the recommendations from this report, to ensure that Scotland’s public transport is made safer for women and girls.
