Scottish Parliament: Drug Treatment and Rehabilitation (20 Apr 2006)

Maureen Watt: Thank you, Presiding Officer, for allowing me time in this debate to get my first speech over at an early stage. As Stewart Stevenson did, I want in this debate to draw on my 14 years' experience as a prison visitor at Craiginches, where I have witnessed the human misery that is suffered by individuals as a result of drug misuse and involvement with drugs. Over the years, I have seen the...

Scottish Parliament: Rural Development Programme (27 Apr 2006)

Maureen Watt: Does the minister recognise that local action group areas under LEADER are somewhat large for a small country such as ours? The minimum population for an area is 10,000 and the maximum is 100,000. Is not that prescriptive? Are those thresholds based on EU figures for larger countries such as Germany, Denmark and England?

Scottish Parliament: Rural Development Programme (27 Apr 2006)

Maureen Watt: As Rob Gibson said, we broadly welcome the consultation document, "Rural Development Programme for Scotland 2007-2013", and the chance to debate the future of the land of Scotland and the part that it plays in our overall economic development. As with any plan, the devil will be in the detail and in the funding that is available. Much is said about the rural economy and the need to diversify...

Scottish Parliament: Question Time — Scottish Executive — Finance and Public Services and Communities: Free Personal Care (Local Authority Budgets) (11 May 2006)

Maureen Watt: Does the minister agree that the figures of £145 for personal care and £65 for nursing care, which were introduced back in 2002, no longer cover the real costs that councils pay for those services? Wales now offers £107.63 for nursing care and Northern Ireland provides £100, but in Scotland the council tax payer is bearing the brunt of the cost of a policy that the Executive heralds as a...

Scottish Parliament: Drugs and Hidden Harm (11 May 2006)

Maureen Watt: Although the publication of the "Hidden Harm—Next Steps" report gives the Executive another opportunity to highlight the plight of children who are exposed to drugs, I hope that the many professionals who work with vulnerable children do not say, with an air of resignation, "Aye, another report—aims but nae action and nae meaningful money into the right places." I hope that the report is...

Scottish Parliament: Aberdeen Crossrail (17 May 2006)

Maureen Watt: I welcome this debate not because I want to praise the Executive—which is what Richard Baker no doubt intends—but because I want to highlight some barriers that hinder the development of an integrated transport system in the north-east.
