THE Scottish Parliament has agreed to treat the Rent Freeze Bill as emergency legislation despite Tory MSPs' efforts.
Ahead of a debate on the Cost of Living (Tenant Protection) (Scotland) Bill in Holyrood on Tuesday afternoon, MSPs were asked to vote on whether or not to treat the legislation as urgent to allow it to be scrutinised faster.
However, Tory MSP Miles Briggs tried twice to intervene and push the legislation into the long grass.
