What it asks

Calling on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Government to give the same level of protection to the families of people from Scotland who die abroad as is currently in place for people from England by amending the Fatal Accidents and Sudden Deaths Inquiry (Scotland) Act 1976 to require the holding of a fatal accident inquiry when a person from Scotland dies abroad.

What the petitioner did first

I first raised my concerns with my local elected representatives for Glasgow City Council and went on to raise them with both my MP and MSP. I have also put in writing to Crown Office and the Scottish Youth Parliament
