(i)             to note that the Lord Provost had accepted the urgent notice of motion by Councillors Yuill and Allard (also to be in the name of Councillors Malik and Brooks) onto the agenda as a matter of urgency in terms of Section 50B(4)(b) of the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973, as STV’s announcement came after the deadline for submitting notices of motion to this Council meeting and time was of the essence in responding to the threat to local independent TV news programming and approximately 60 jobs; and

(ii)           to note that officers would provide a verbal update at the end of the meeting following on from, and in accordance with, the decision of the Urgent Business Committee of 19 September 2025.
