Schools should do that in first and second year, as those students will not become involved unless they are praised at an early age. If MSPs want all children to be represented, they should come to our schools instead of inviting a select few to come and talk to them.

The problem is that, when they consider the Strathclyde network—which, I am sure, the committee knows well—compare it to the rest of the network and examine the earnings per diagrammed vehicle, they see a high figure for the rest of the network and a relatively much lower figure in Strathclyde and they immediately jump to the conclusion that the Strathclyde railway network is less efficient, despite the fact that it carries more passengers and fulfils a greater social need.We also have the problem that, in Scotland, people want faster end-to-end journey times on the express services and the infrastructure is plainly not capable of satisfying those in Inverness who want to be in Edinburgh by the crack of dawn and all those in between, who would make MSPs...

CPAG is proud of the major role that it has played in getting the bill to its present stage, and we urge all MSPs to consider the points that we are trying to make.

The best science must be done on a competitive basis, so that we compete with the best scientific proposals, but I would like more research funding to be available for particular topics, such as sea lice.It was interesting to hear Dick Shelton's view, because I expressed a similar view this morning when I talked to some MSPs. Until a couple of years ago, it...

While it might be amusing to consider MSPs being put in such discomfort, a real issue is involved.

That is a concern when almost every MSP in the chamber today—and all those who are not here—has his or her pet scheme for road or rail improvement.

When I asked to speak in today's debate, I was unsurprised to learn that there was not a queue of MSPs who wanted to contribute. That suggests that members of the Parliament are just like the members of the public who did not attend the meetings that Mr Russell talked about.

It should come as no surprise that there are many people across Scotland who are imprisoned in their own homes because of their fear of crime—they are afraid to walk the street alone and afraid to open their doors at night. I imagine that every MSP, as several have mentioned, has had some representation from a constituent who is concerned about criminal beh...

I apologise to the chamber if my speech is not up to its usual sparkling standard, but I am a bit disoriented—the people who are organising the party this evening for the Labour and Liberal Democrat MSPs have cajoled me into playing the part of a senior civil servant in a sketch.I congratulate the author of the amendment on leaving out the usual bit about w...

I welcome Jim Wallace's agreement to the Government's paying for Scottish Criminal Record Office checks on volunteers. That is a step forward. Several MSPs and many bodies outwith the Parliament pressed hard for that, and it is to the Executive's credit that it has started to recognise—albeit slowly—the argument and to address the point.
