- Motion reference: S6M-00767
That the Parliament celebrates the launch of the Scottish Jewish Heritage Centre within the Garnethill Synagogue; understands that the centre is seeking to share the history of the synagogue building and the experiences of Jewish people in Scotland over the last 200 years; thanks everyone involved in the project, which will help increase the visibility of the Scottish Jewish Archives Centre's collections and expand access to the Category A-listed synagogue building through regular tours, and believes that this is an important step in recognising the impact of Jewish immigration on the development of Scotland.
