Overview of the Bill
This Scottish Government Bill was introduced by the Cabinet Secretary for Finance and the Economy, Kate Forbes MSP on 9 December 2021. The lead committee is the Finance and Public Administration Committee.
I hope you find this information useful in your consideration of the instrument.
Stuart McMillan MSP
Convener of the Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee.
I would be grateful to receive a response by 1 December 2021 and look forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely
Gillian Martin MSP
Convener, Health, Social Care and Sport Committee.
In closing the petition, the Committee agreed to highlight to the petitioner that they can contact their local MSPs about pursuing amendments to the Bill (once introduced) to ensure that the issues raised in this petition are fully considered.
In November 2016, the then Cabinet Secretary for Justice, Michael Matheson MSP, wrote to the then Home Secretary stating that the UK Government should commission and appoint an independent UK-wide investigation into any political interference during the dispute .
I hope that the Committee’s letter is helpful in progressing matters further and I understand that the Convener of the Social Justice and Social Security Committee is also writing on similar terms.
Yours sincerely
Kenneth Gibson MSP
Convener
Finance and Public Administration Committee.
I am copying this letter to the Convener of the Economy and Fair Work Committee for its interest.
Yours sincerely,
Stuart McMillan MSP
Convener of the Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee.
