Tuesday
evening saw the annual Hansard Society Parliamentary Reception in Holyrood. Hosted by Alex
Fergusson MSP, Presiding Officer of the Scottish Parliament; the reception
highlighted the Hansard Society's key role in raising awareness and encouraging
political engagement across Scotland.
The Presiding Officer also noted several other successes of the last twelve
months, including the hosting of the Hansard Scholars on their study visits to Edinburgh and the
excellent research conducted into women in devolution.
Joyce
McMillan, the Chair of the Hansard Society Scotland Working Group, spoke and
paid tribute to the work of the Hansard Society and that of Project Manager
Emma Megaughin. The reception also provided an opportunity for the Hansard
Society to thank those MSPs, parliamentary staff, and sponsors for their
ongoing help and support.
This reception
was held in partnership with the Centre for Scottish Public Policy.
