That the Parliament congratulates Chloe Whyte and Nathan Calder on being elected to represent Falkirk East at the Scottish Youth Parliament, and Liam Slaven and Robbie Burgess who have been elected as the MSYPs for Falkirk West; recognises the importance of the youth parliament in getting young people involved in politics; considers that such engagement is vitally important to the future of Scotland as they will in turn become the people responsible for leading the country; considers it is incumbent on MSPs as lawmakers to hear the voices of Scotland's young people in order to make the best decisions for their future; commends the work of the youth parliament and its ongoing engagement with MSPs, and wishes all new and returning MSYPs the very best for their two-year terms.
