Young Carers’ Grant (PE1470)
Agenda item 3 is consideration of petition PE1470, which was from the Scottish Youth Parliament.
As members will see from the briefing paper, the petitioner is now content for the petition to be closed. I think that a petitioner’s asking for a petition to be closed is unique in my experience. However, it is for committees to decide whether they wish to close petitions, so I invite the committee to consider what further action, if any, it wishes to take.
I am happy for the petition to be closed, but we should put on the record our congratulations on the outcome of the petitioners’ efforts.
Do members agree?
Members indicated agreement.
On behalf of the committee, I reiterate what Liam McArthur said about the work that the Scottish Youth Parliament has undertaken. I thank it for all its efforts. The petition is now closed.
