Bureau Members will be aware that under Rule 5.6.1(c) the Bureau has a duty to ensure that there is a period of time available for Members’ Business following Decision Time. 2. Motions submitted for Members’ Business are shown below. S3M-3215# Irene Oldfather: People with Dementia in Accident and Emergency - Recognising Their Needs—That the Parliament notes the launch of the report, People with Dementia in NHS Accident and Emergency- Recognising Their Needs, by the Cross Party Group on Alzheimer’s; is concerned that evidence suggests that while an estimated 70% of elderly people attending accident and emergency will show some sign of having mental health problems including dementia, less than 10% of problems are identified by admitting doctors; notes evidence which suggests that the average length of stay for an older person with dementia in accident and emergency is between three and seven hours and that readmission for this vulnerable group is likely to result in high levels of functional decline; further notes that mortality rates for patients with dementia admitted to hospital are higher than for other elderly people with some studies suggesting that as many as 30% of such patients die within six months and more than 10% are readmitted and may be placed in institutional care as a consequence; recognises the report’s recommendation that where clinically possible there should be a presumption against admission for patients with dementia and that specialist community-based care, including consultant support and diagnostic testing, is desirable; welcomes as a starting point the decision by NHS Ayrshire and Arran to appoint a mental health liaison nurse to lead the development of protocols, policies and guidelines relevant to patients with dementia, and believes that it is important that people with dementia are given appropriate and timely treatment that respects their dignity and independence. Supported by: Jamie Hepburn, David Stewart, James Kelly, Claire Baker, Hugh O’Donnell, Patricia Ferguson, Kenneth Gibson, Christine Grahame, David Whitton, Angela Constance, Hugh Henry, Bill Kidd, Jackie Baillie, Johann Lamont, Dr Richard Simpson, Cathie Craigie, Stuart McMillan, Trish Godman, Robin Harper, Marilyn Livingstone, Mary Mulligan, Nanette Milne, Margaret Mitchell, Mary Scanlon S3M-3201# Bill Kidd: Alderman Road Community Garden Highly Commended in the People Category of SURF Awards 2008—That the Parliament offers its congratulations to the Alderman Road Community Garden, which operates in the Knightswood area of Glasgow, for being highly commended in the People category of the 2008 Scottish Urban Regeneration Forum Awards; extols the work of the project in providing a purposeful working environment for those furthest from the job market, such as people suffering from mental health problems, people with drug or alcohol addiction, long-term unemployed people and asylum seekers, in a range of areas in horticulture, hard and soft landscaping, recycling and retail; recognises the outstanding enterprise of the lead organisation, the Coach House Trust, in the field of mental health and environmental and social justice, and celebrates the enhancement of wellbeing, pride and opportunity in the local community facilitated by the Alderman Road Community Garden and projects like it. Supported by: Bill Butler, Kenneth Gibson, Sandra White, Rob Gibson, Robin Harper, Jamie Hepburn, Christina McKelvie, Bob Doris, Angela Constance, Michael Matheson, Hugh Henry, Stuart McMillan, Gil Paterson S3M-3200# Karen Whitefield: Diabetes UK 75th Anniversary—That the Parliament congratulates Diabetes UK on its 75th anniversary, which it celebrates in 2009; notes, in this year of Homecoming, the particular contribution of Scotland and Scots to the work of Diabetes UK and to diabetes research, including RD Lawrence who founded the organisation with HG Wells in 1934, JR McLeod who shared the Nobel Prize in Medicine for the discovery of insulin 1 RESTRICTED – POLICY PB/S3/09/14 and John Ireland who co-designed and developed the insulin pen; recognises that diabetes continues to be a major public health issue in Scotland, with 209,706 people registered with diabetes and a projected increase to 350,000 by 2025; commends the improvements in diabetes services over the past seven years arising from the Scottish Diabetes Framework and Action Plan; notes that the action plan concludes this year, and looks forward to renewed commitment to action on diabetes in Scotland to take us in to 2010 and onwards. Supported by: Margaret Mitchell, Dr Richard Simpson, Mary Scanlon, Christine Grahame, Shirley-Anne Somerville, Marlyn Glen, Kenneth Gibson, Rhona Brankin, Jackson Carlaw, Liam McArthur, Keith Brown, Nanette Milne, David Stewart, Des McNulty, David Whitton, Malcolm Chisholm, Charlie Gordon, Robert Brown, Sarah Boyack, Elaine Murray, Margaret Curran, Mary Mulligan, James Kelly, Roseanna Cunningham, Ross Finnie, Patrick Harvie, Andy Kerr, Patricia Ferguson, Trish Godman, Angela Constance, Christina McKelvie, Jackie Baillie, Cathie Craigie, Hugh O’Donnell, Jamie McGrigor, Michael Matheson, Cathy Peattie, Jamie Hepburn, Cathy Jamieson, Bill Butler, Robin Harper, Hugh Henry, Marilyn Livingstone, Helen Eadie, Stuart McMillan, Gil Paterson, Tom McCabe, Jack McConnell S3M-3132# Sandra White: Opposition to Parkhead Fire Station Closure—That the Parliament expresses concern over the proposals of Strathclyde Fire and Rescue Service management to close Parkhead fire station; believes that the communities of Shettleston, Tollcross, Haghill, Dalmarnock, Riddrie, Carntyne and Mount Vernon, which will now be served by a new station in Cambuslang, will see response times to incidents increasing, which in turn will lead to an increase in the number of fire deaths and injuries; notes that Parkhead fire station covers some of the poorest communities in the United Kingdom and that it has been identified that the main causes of fires are related to social and economic problems, drug and alcohol abuse and areas of poverty and high unemployment, and believes that Strathclyde Fire and Rescue Service management’s proposals will be detrimental to those communities affected. Supported by: Alasdair Allan, Michael Matheson, Bashir Ahmad, Rob Gibson, Bob Doris, Aileen Campbell, Bill Wilson, Jamie Hepburn, Bill Kidd, Gil Paterson, Christina McKelvie, Stuart McMillan S3M-3097# Christina McKelvie: Opposition to People Trafficking—That the Parliament condemns the practice of people trafficking; welcomes the Scottish Government’s support for the Trafficking Awareness Raising Alliance and the commitment from civic Scotland, including justice and peace groups in Cupar and Motherwell, which is supporting victims of trafficking, and supports all measures and groups that seek to end the practice.
