Good Food Nation

Letter from the Convener to the Convener of the Rural Affairs, Islands and Natural Environment Committee, 8 February 2022

Dear Finlay,

Good Food Nation (Scotland) Bill

Thank you for your letter of 21 January 2022 proposing the Local Government, Housing and Planning Committee input into the Rural Affairs, Islands and Natural Environment (RAINE) Committee scrutiny of the Good Food Nation (Scotland) Bill.

The Local Government, Housing and Planning Committee has agreed that as I am also a member of the RAINE Committee, I should pursue issues of relevance to my committee within the remaining evidence sessions on the BILL.

I would appreciate it if I could be allotted time within our remaining meetings on the Bill to allow me to explore issues pertinent to local authorities.

Yours sincerely

Ariane Burgess

Convener, Local Government, Housing and Planning Committee
