Petition PE598 is on the Barra air service, on which we tried to get the Deputy Minister for Enterprise, Transport and Lifelong Learning to reach a decision. The minister's response to us states that he announced earlier this month that the Glasgow to Barra air service is to be brought into line with the Executive's other supported air services, which are to Campbeltown and Tiree. That means that the services will be secured until 31 March 2006. The minister provides details of the nature and purpose of the proposed review of the air service.As the response meets the petitioners' short-term objectives and will be welcomed, it is suggested that the petitioners should be encouraged to participate fully in the forthcoming review of the air service and that we should take no further action on the petition. Are those suggestions agreed to?Members indicated agreement.
