I am aware of the motion that Robert Brown has lodged, but I do not think that it would prevent the committee from furthering its consideration of the petition.
Does it prefer relative need, population, or where the tax is raised? If Mr Brown will forgive me, I will come to that point.The consultation on the Government's proposal ended on 18 July.
My understanding is that we will not have sub-sale relief. In relation to Gavin Brown’s questions, if we maintain that position—with the exception of the discussion in advance—will there be so few occasions when it might be considered that it could be the exception?
I welcome to the public gallery Mike Browne, who is from the group regionally important geological and geomorphological sites in Scotland, and Seonaid Leishman and Margaret Greene, who are from the RIGS group in Strathclyde.
At the end of the day, if we had a commissioner with a role for victims, I would be happy, not just for me, but for victims and witnesses. I undertake to explore Mr Brown’s point in more detail if I am re-elected on 5 May.
