To ask the Scottish Government, further to the First Minister's attendance at the meeting of the Conveners Group on 27 March 2024, and his statement that, if the details of some of the cases in Scotland were made public, people would be "horrified" if these convictions were overturned, whether it will detail which specific cases the First Minister was referring to; what specific advice he had received in relation to that assertion, and what consideration he has made of the individual cases in Scotland, and, if it cannot or will not detail which specific cases the First Minister was referring to, what its position is on how this will impact on any people who were wrongfully convicted in Scotland and who are still awaiting exoneration.
