Citizen Participation and Public Petitions Committee
13th Meeting, 2022
Committees sometimes meet in private. This might be to hear confidential or particularly sensitive information, or to discuss a draft report. When a committee meets in private, its proceedings are not broadcast and, usually, there is no Official Report. However, the committee minutes will record the business taken and any decisions reached.
Carol Mochan MSP will be invited to declare any relevant interests.
The Committee will consider the following continued petitions—
PE1610: Upgrade the A75;
PE1657: A77 upgrade;
PE1865: Suspend all surgical mesh and fixation devices;
PE1870: Ensure teachers of autistic pupils are appropriately qualified;
PE1884: Make whole plant cannabis oil available on the NHS or alternative funding put in place;
PE1919: Ban the sale of high caffeine products to children for performance enhancement; and
PE1926: Expand universal free school meals for all nursery, primary and
secondary school pupils.
