S6M-16558: Emma Roddick: The Campaign for a Highland Tartan Act— That the Parliament notes Clare Campbell of Prickly Thistle's campaign to protect, preserve and promote traditional tartan cloth making in the Scottish Highlands; recognises what it sees as its profound cultural and economic significance and potential; notes that Clare's campaign seeks the enactment of a Highland Tartan Act, analogous to the Harris Tweed Act 1993, specifically safeguarding tartan woven in the Highlands; understands that such legislation would need to be introduced at a UK level; considers that any economic benefits and employment derived from Highland dress, including the production and sale of tartan, rightfully belong in the Highland communities themselves; believes that such protection would not only provide due recognition and reward to the Highlands for its unique heritage and valuable exports, but also serve as a crucial step towards redressing historical injustices; recognises Clare in her efforts, and notes the calls urging the UK Government to look on her petition favourably and consider introducing legislation to secure the future of this craft.
