Official Report Meeting date: 27 June 2019

Public Audit and Post-legislative Scrutiny Committee 27 June 2019

We will undoubtedly deal with that in more detail after the summer recess. I want to burrow down into the issue of skills, which are key.
Official Report Meeting date: 30 June 2022

Constitution, Europe, External Affairs and Culture Committee 30 June 2022

I thank our parliamentary staff and our advisers for their support. I wish everyone a good recess and send special good wishes and congratulations to our colleague Maurice Golden, who is not with us today.

Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee 12 August 2014

Education, Children and Young People Committee 05 November 2025 [Draft]

Meeting of the Parliament 21 December 2023

Official Report Meeting date: 18 December 2025

Meeting of the Parliament 18 December 2025 [Draft]

By the time I next have the ability to obtain parliamentary scrutiny, it will be past the date on which the measure comes in. It is one thing to hold a debate the subject of which we can totally agree on—I agree with Alasdair Allan on the fishing and coastal growth fund—but it is completely outrageous that, at the same time, such a decision has been announced on the last sitting day before the recess.
