The motion

That the Parliament welcomes the first edition of the National Guide to: Local Sports Councils, which has been compiled by the Scottish Association of Local Sports Councils (SALSC); notes that the national guide has been produced to raise awareness of the valuable work that local sports councils do in communities, including that of East Kilbride Sports Council, which it understands is the longest standing sports council in Scotland; notes that SALSC has a strong membership of 38 local sports councils, with membership spread from the Western Isles to the Scottish Borders, with a combined club representation of approximately 2,800, supported by SALSC and local volunteers; thanks all involved in providing this service to people who participate in the many sports represented, and wishes the SALSC well in its endeavours to increase this representation.
