The record
3 contributionsAgain, we have held this petition open for some time. Interestingly, it seems to have received a fair amount of attention, and I think that the Government indicated that it was interested in some of the arguments that were being made. We are considering the petition again because it has come back to us from the cycle of committee consideration. However, it would probably be more appropriate for us to consider it more thoroughly when the consultation that the Scottish Government is undertaking has reported back and we have the feedback from that to inform our views further. I suggest that we defer consideration of the petition until that time.
Do members agree to write to the Scottish Government asking it to report back to the committee once the consultation feedback is available and to defer further consideration of the petition until that time?
Members indicated agreement.
