The controversial dismantling of headstones in Dumfries and Galloway without relatives being properly notified is likely to be discussed by Holyrood ministers in the coming months.
Mid and Upper Nithsdale Councillor Andrew Wood filed a petition with the Scottish Government’s public petitions committee earlier this year after failing to get sufficient answers from the council over its headstone safety programme.
Mr Wood was recently contacted by the committee to confirm that his petition had been published on the Scottish Government website for the public to view.
