Should Holyrood Conveners be elected, asks Committee
Channel: The Scottish Parliament
Date: 2014-12-05

A Scottish Parliament committee is exploring the way the Parliament's Committee Conveners are selected. The Standards, Procedures and Public Appointments Committee is holding an inquiry into whether conveners should be elected by the whole Parliament, rather than the current system of selection by the committee itself. The subject was opened up for debate in October by the Scottish Parliament's Presiding Officer, the Rt. Hon Tricia Marwick MSP. Now the Standards, Procedures and Public Appointments Committee is seeking the views of the public on the issue.
