I now move to voting time. Unless three people wish for the bell to be rung, I intend to proceed. Okay, so we now move to the vote today, which is on the Welsh Conservative debate on school funding. I call for a vote on the motion, tabled in the name of Darren Millar. If the proposal is not agreed to, we will vote on the amendments tabled to the motion. Open the vote. Close the vote. For the motion 18, no abstentions, 26 against. Therefore, the motion is not agreed.

I now call for a vote on the motion as amended.

(Translated)

Motion NDM6975 as amended:

To propose that the National Assembly for Wales:

1. Notes that the current 'school services' Indicator Based Assessment (IBA) formulae model the authorities' relative need to spend on school services, given the funding available and making assumptions around council tax and prioritisation of spending.

2. Welcomes the recently published 'Funding for schools' guide that clarifies arrangements for funding schools

3. Recognises that all Welsh Government funding and policy guidance to local authorities, education consortia and schools support delivery in line with the 'Our National Mission' action plan to raise standards, reduce the attainment gap, and deliver an education system that enjoys public confidence.

We now move on to the short debate. If Members are going, please do so quickly and quietly. If you want to talk, can you talk outside the Chamber, please?
