Historic Sites (Protection) (PE1078) PE1078, by Peter Paterson and the save Gillies hill committee, calls on the Parliament to consider and debate the need for new legislation to protect historic sites from physical destruction through mineral extraction and to preserve such sites in their present condition for the community's wider amenity.This petition is supported by the constituency MSP, Bruce Crawford. He has had to go to another meeting, but in a note that he has passed to me he says that, in a positive step, Stirling Council has agreed to ask developers to undertake an environmental impact assessment.
