Chamber and committees

Thank you—those are important points to bear in mind.

Pauline, do you want to come in at this point?

That is very helpful.

I will bring in Russell Findlay to pick up some questions on pyrotechnics.

Thank you. It is helpful to get that clarification.

We will move on to looking at the restrictions around the use and supply of fireworks. I will bring in Fulton MacGregor first, and then Russell Findlay has some further questions.

Will the member take an intervention?

I thank the member for giving way. I would like to point out, and hear his comments on, the fact that the Labour-Tory administration in Aberdeen City Council has equally made what I can only describe as a bit of a mess of the spaces for people interventions in the city centre. The people of Aberdeen are still living with those interventions because the administration will not remove part of them. That has excluded people with disabilities, who have been strongly represented by the local disability partnership.

We will move on and talk about pyrotechnics, as we have not covered that yet.

That is fine.

Jamie, do you want to come in now?

We have a fair bit of interest in this topic, so I will bring in Jamie Greene, then Russell Findlay and Fulton MacGregor. Please keep your questions and responses succinct, because there are still another couple of areas that we are interested in exploring.

We will move on to control zones—I am just keeping track of the themes that we are looking to cover.
