What it asks

Calling on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Government to endorse and be a stakeholder in the establishment of a Scottish-Pakistan Youth Council, to bring Scotland and Pakistan closer in the international environment.

What the petitioner did first

I emailed Fiona Hyslop MSP, Cabinet Secretary for Culture and External Affairs, regarding the establishment of a Scotland-Pakistan Youth Council, to which I was asked to give further details and provide relevant documents. A further reply stated that I should keep the Scottish Government informed, and that it cannot endorse the Scottish-Pakistan Youth Council.
I approached the Scottish Youth Parliament to which it replied that it was unable to enter into such an arrangement because:
1. Their main focus was on our national outcomes.
2. The SYP did not have a statement within their Manifesto to support such an initiative.
