A HOLYROOD cross-party group (CPG) to “protect and promote” the Scots language has been approved by MSPs.
SNP MSPs Emma Harper and Jackie Dunbar, who are both Scots speakers, addressed the Standards, Procedures and Public Appointments Committee on Thursday morning.
Although Tory MSP Edward Mountain voiced his concerns that there are too many CPGs in operation, he eventually agreed to vote to confirm it could be re-started.
