I thank committee members again for their patience. We move now to agenda item 3. We have two petitions before us; we will consider PE1056 first. I am sure that members will have had the opportunity to read through the information. The committee is invited to consider whether it wishes to write to the Scottish Government to request an update on the progress of all three strands of the petition, to close consideration of the petition, or to propose an alternative approach.

The petition has never been before this committee. I appreciate that Trish Godman did tremendous work on the issue in the past. I have read the papers that we have today and I would welcome our writing to the Scottish Government to get an update. That is my proposal.
