I think that Dr Scott mentioned that in her submission. I am keen to know more about it.

I would like to get more information from the cabinet secretary and whoever else is involved on the role of Her Majesty’s chief inspector of prisons with regard to some of the human rights issues and the length of the extension of the powers as set out in the instrument.

What does each of the enterprise agencies see as the role of the 19 Business Gateway offices in supporting SMEs and sole traders? How joined up is each agency’s work with Business Gateway to support a just transition and net zero?

It is good to hear that the local government pension funds are on board with you and are taking net zero seriously. You alluded to your discussions with Lothian and Strathclyde, but have any other funds come forward to discuss how to crowd in investment? Is that on your radar?

You have answered my question already, because I was going to ask you about the discussions that you have undertaken with local government pension schemes. However, I want to drill down into that a wee bit more. You talked about Strathclyde Pension Fund, but which other local government pension schemes have you had discussions with? Given that pension schemes have been under a lot of scrutiny in relation to disinvestment and more ethical investment, has that formed part of your discussions? I also want to ask you about capitalising on the investment and what is planned for the future.

Good morning, everyone. You talked about the supply chain development programme. I used to sit on the board of the supplier development programme for which my local authority was the host authority. Have you put in legal clauses about supply chain visibility? I put that question to Scottish Enterprise, first.

The risk of carbon leakage and how that can be mitigated has also been touched on. Can an agreement on carbon pricing be reached at COP26?
