(S2O-04827)Cathy Jamieson: I met with representatives of the Association of Visiting Committees on 6 December last year and advised them of my intention to hold a review of the role of Prison Visiting Committees.
I will make one general point and then get down to some specifics. If they are not taken into consideration, it is my fault for not getting in by the deadline.
Without wanting to overload SPICe, could we also get an idea of what funds are ring fenced in local authorities and which are part of grant-aided expenditure?
Of these visits, 72 were made under the Members Support Allowance within the UK or to Brussels/Strasbourg, 46 under the auspices of External Liaison Unit and 42 as committee visits.
A particular result of the visit is that a team of Finnish education researchers visited Scotland from 31 May to 2 June to share with us their knowledge about applying ICTs to education and learning.
