PE1350 is on the return of the Wallace safe conduct. Again, members will have the clerk’s note. I invite members’ comments, but the committee should note that the petitioner has advised that he is content that the petition be closed.

I should declare an interest as a member of the Society of William Wallace—indeed, many years ago, I was its press officer. I have to say that I am very pleased for Nick Brand and the others, who have sent the committee a very nice letter of congratulation.

I endorse Sandra White’s comments and, for those who might go and check my entry in the register of interests, put on record my membership of the society.
