Petition PE123 is from the warm homes campaign and calls on the Scottish Parliament to identify, discuss and seek to implement measures that would eradicate fuel poverty as a matter of urgency. We have had two committee reporters working on the issue and we have passed our report to the Social Justice Committee to assist in its consideration of the Executive's draft fuel poverty statement. If there are no comments from the committee, I suggest that we take no further action on the petition at this time. Is that agreed?

Could the Public Petitions Committee be informed of that decision?
Yes. I put it on record that I believe that the Public Petitions Committee should always be informed of our decisions on petitions. Just for clarification—and it should probably not go on public record—does the Public Petitions Committee prefer to know on an on-going basis what the committee is doing with petitions or does it just require to know what our final decision is?
It is just the final decision, and it is only a matter of courtesy. The Public Petitions Committee does not have a right to know.
You know me—I always try to be courteous.
