Written by Time to catch-up on the goings on at Holyrood in the name of flood management.
In light of the cabinet reshuffle, where Roseanna Cunningham was promoted to be Minister of the Environment, the Rural Affairs and Environment Committee appointed Maureen Watt MSP as their new convenor at their 25th February meeting. Video of this appointment is here.
The Flood Risk Management (Scotland) Bill successfully passed through Stage 1 of the Scottish Parliament on the 22nd January and is currently making its way through the stage 2 process, with the Rural Affairs and Environment Committee considering the various amendments and preparing the Bill before it comes back to the chamber for the stage 2 vote.
Videos of the committee meeting on the 4th of March and the 11th of March are available .
You can keep an eye on the progress of the Bill through the Scottish Parliament on the Flood Risk Management (Scotland) Bill Committee page.
