PE1184, by Mrs L Albarracin, on behalf of the Bellahouston academy eco-committee, calls on the Parliament to urge the Government to make funding and other assistance available to enable schools to become environmentally friendly and achieve green-flag status. The Government provides funding for the eco-schools programme and additional measures. Do members have any views?

On that basis, we should close the petition.

All eco-schools face problems of one kind or another—part of the challenge of being an eco-school is to get past those problems. I would like to record my dissatisfaction that any local authority is not prepared to fund recycling bins in classrooms. The petitioners have got round that problem and have benefited from the experience. I am quite happy to close the petition.

Okay. We will close PE1184 on those grounds.
