Lodged by Ross Greer Green Lodged 20 Nov 2017 11 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament welcomes the decision by ScotRail to ban so-called mosquito devices from all of its stations; congratulates the Scottish Youth Parliament and its chair, Amy-Lee Fraioli MSYP, on this success in its long-running campaign against the devices; understands that mosquito devices emit a high frequency noise that is generally only detectable by young people; condemns the use of such devices, which affect all young people regardless of their behaviour; believes that they are discriminatory and a violation of rights, and calls for an end to the use of mosquito devices across Scotland.
