This session we have celebrated our most diverse membership ever @scotparl. I thank them all for their contribution to Parliament.
I hope that the 45% of women colleagues we have today isn’t a high point, but the foundation of a truly representative Parliament.
9 - 15 March is #WelcometoyourVote Week.
The theme this year is 'Why Voting Matters'.
Download @ElectoralCommUK resources & help prepare the young people you work with to get registered, get informed, get prepared and get involved!
