Collette Stevenson wants to come in on that.

Mr Donald, are you able to respond, if you want to?

[Inaudible.] I will move straight on. We would like to touch on the main themes in the bill.

We have a few supplementary questions on that subject. Pauline McNeill has a follow-up question, and I know that Russell Findlay and Jamie Greene would like to come in, followed by David MacKenzie.

I will come to you all, starting with Pauline.

That is maybe brought out in your written submission, but reiterating that point is helpful.

Thanks very much, chief inspector. That is a helpful overview. Would Russell Findlay like to come back in on that update from Nicola Robison?

I am sure that we will come back to the point about firework control zones. I thank all the witnesses for their responses.

I have a follow-up question to ask Nicola Robison a wee bit about offences, and then I will hand over to Katy Clark and Rona Mackay.

Police Scotland’s submission touches on section 7, which is about relevant offences. Comments in the submission suggest that Police Scotland would find it helpful

“to have a wider list of offences to include the likes of Wilful Fireraising or Culpable and Reckless Fireraising in order to promote a more positive impact on community safety and wellbeing.”

It would probably be helpful to hear a wee bit more about the rationale for that widening.

We will move to questions about the licensing scheme. I will start with Rona Mackay and then bring in Pauline McNeill for a supplementary question.

I will bring in Jamie Greene.

That is great. Thank you for being nice and succinct—that is really helpful.
