That the Parliament thanks Lomond Mountain Rescue Team (MRT) for its service; notes that Lomond MRT is run by volunteers who make themselves available to assist members of the public who find themselves in difficulty in the mountains; understands that the team was established in 1967; notes that the area that the team covers is popular with hillwalkers and sees high visitor numbers; commends the team for its commitment and tireless work; notes that the team carries out regular training on top of the time spent on call-outs; further notes that the rescues carried out would not be possible without generous donations from the public, and recognises the excellent work that Lomond MRT does to help educate the public and ensure those enjoying Scotland’s hills are equipped to do so safely.
