Business of the House

Contribution

Under the SNP Scottish Government, police numbers in Fife have fallen by an average of one a month. Results from my new antisocial behaviour survey show that four in 10 Cowdenbeath residents are afraid to go out after dark, and more than half witness antisocial behaviour every single week. This is unacceptable. Does the Leader of the House agree that Cowdenbeath has been badly let down by the SNP, and that we need change, and will he grant Government time for a debate on antisocial behaviour?
