lpv:spoken text	"I welcome the proposed register of lobbyists. At a time when public confidence in politics is at a low, it is essential that the political institutions are as transparent in their operations as possible. I also welcome the fact that lawyers will be exempt from registration when giving legal advice; this is in keeping with the principle long recognised in the Scottish legal tradition of lawyer-client confidentiality. However, a number of my own group’s key amendments designed to make stricter rules were unsuccessful and accordingly both I and the group abstained on the final vote."@en1
