This will be the last meeting of the CPG ahead of the next Scottish Parliament elections which will take place on Thursday 7 May. The work of the CPG will be paused until after the next election and the group will seek to be re-established – according to current parliamentary rules, the group must identify cross-party membership of the CPG from the new MSP cohort, including a convenor or co-convenors, hold an initial meeting and re-register within 90 business days of the first meeting of parliament after the election.
