Meeting description: We discussed curlew conservation in Scotland and what we feel are the pressures on curlew populations for example changes in land use. We asked the Member to write to the Cabinet Secretary for Environment Climate Change and Land Reform to ask for support on a bid for European Union LIFE funding for a project to conserve curlews. We also asked the Member to submit a motion ahead of World Curlew Day in April in his role as Species Champion and to sponsor a cross-party meeting in Parliament at some point later in the year.
