That the Parliament welcomes the return of the MG ALBA Scots Trad Music Awards (Na Trads), which will be held on 4 December 2022, at Dundee’s Caird Hall; understands that the organising body, Hands Up for Trad, funded by The National Lottery through Creative Scotland, was formed in 2002 and exists to increase the profile and visibility of Scottish traditional arts, language, culture and music through information, advocacy and education to artists, participants and audiences; highlights the many north east organisations that have been nominated, including Braemar Folk Festival in Aberdeenshire for Event of the Year, SC&T Youth in Aberdeen for Community Project of the Year, Tartan Tunes in Dundee for Trad Music in the Media, and Aberdeen Folk Club for Club of the Year, and wishes all nominees the very best of luck.
