Scotland's Referendum


The Scottish Government has acknowledged my response to their consultation paper on Your Scotland, Your Referendum.

Apparently all of the non-confidential responses are to be made available to the public - which is a welcome development.

The closing date for responses is 11 May 2012  - so I assume the web link will go live soon after that date - which just happens to be the week after the local council elections.

Your Scotland, Your Referendum


Thank you for your response to our consultation paper Your Scotland, Your Referendum which we issued on 25th January 2012.


We have received your response and have allocated it the reference number BHLF-G32X-EXX4-D. The closing date for responses is 11th May 2012.


Following this date, all responses will be analysed and considered along with any other available evidence. We will issue a report on the consultation exercise. This report will be available on the Scottish Government consultation website.


Accessing responses to the consultation


We intend making all non-confidential responses to the consultation available to the public in the following ways:


On the Scottish Government consultation web pages (http://www.scotland.gov.uk/consultations).


At the Scottish Government Library, K Spur, Saughton House, Broomhouse Drive, Edinburgh, EH11 3XD.


Copies of responses can be viewed by visiting the library or can also be provided by post. Charges for photocopies are made on a cost-recovery basis. To request copies by post and enquire about charges or make an appointment to view responses at the library, contact the Library on 0131 244 4556.

LGB Rights - Hijacked By Intolerant Zealots!

Now that we're a month away from the month formerly known as June, we can think about what's happened. Given the new events being rolled out in London, Manchester and across the States, I think this sums up the *erm* transition of Pride.

SNP - Conspiracy of Silence

So here's the issue - two Glasgow MSPs (Nicola Sturgeon and Humza Yousaf) have been asked a reasonable question about their use of public money to employ two SNP councillors who already have full-time, salaried jobs as senior elected members of Glasgow City Council.   But these two public servants (both long-serving ministers) refuse to answer, so what to do next? One regular reader suggests raising the matter on the floor of the Scottish Parliament which is a good idea, but requires an MSP who's prepared to put down a written question for Scottish Ministers to answer. So here's a list of activities which will help shine a light on what has been going on because as Lord Nolan once said apropos driving up standards in public life - 'daylight is the best disinfectant'.
