That the Parliament recognises the Community Council Convention of the Highland Council area, held on 14 June 2025 in Beauly, and supported by over 50 community councils representing more than 72,000 residents; notes the Convention’s reported concern regarding the cumulative impact of major renewable energy infrastructure developments across the Highlands, including the industrialisation of natural landscapes and the effect on local communities, democracy and tourism; acknowledges the Convention’s reported call for an urgent pause on all major energy infrastructure applications until a coherent and democratically accountable national energy policy and comprehensive economic impact assessment are in place; supports the demand for a national planning inquiry commission to assess the cumulative impact of energy infrastructure on the environment, economy, and rural communities, and commends Councillor Helen Crawford for her leadership and commitment in convening what it sees as this important gathering and amplifying the voices of affected communities across the region.
