One problem is that the Executive has not noticed that it does not have to push bills through before the summer recess. We are not Westminster; we can resume consideration of bills in the autumn.
I suggest that we correspond with those three groups during the summer recess; when we have their responses, we can consider the petition again early in September, at which point we can decide whether to take further action.
One of those situations is that, as I understand it, the Presiding Officer has a power to vary the date of the Scottish election by one month either side of the normal date.
