Portfolio Question Time – in the Scottish Parliament at 12:53 pm on 7 November 2024.
Good afternoon. The first item of business this afternoon is portfolio questions, and the portfolio on this occasion is social justice. I remind members who wish to ask a supplementary question to press their request-to-speak buttons during the relevant question.
Questions 2 and 3 are grouped together, so I will take any supplementaries after both substantive questions have been asked. There is a lot of interest in asking supplementary questions, so I ask for brief questions and responses.
