What it asks
Calling on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Government to change the eligibility criteria of the priority countries for Scotland’s Saltire Scholarships programme to benefit students of all nationalities.
What the petitioner did first
I emailed the managing body of the Scholarships programme to which I was told that the scholarship is open to the countries mentioned in the eligibility criteria only.
I emailed the Cabinet Secretary for Education and Lifelong Learning, Michael Russell MSP to which I received a reply dated 03 April 2012 and I was told that the eligibility criterion was subsequently reviewed and the criteria for countries may be reviewed in future.
I emailed the Scottish Youth Parliament, to which I was told that the SYP does not have a mandate to deal with my request.
