A picture of me up a Munro with the following text quote: “MSPs want two things: problems and solutions. ‘Life in Scotland’ is like a handbook for me.

Then we can work together to find solutions to make Scotland a better place for LGBTI young people to live”

Celebrating 10 Years of Same-sex Marriage in Scotland Submitted by: Emma Roddick, Highlands and Islands, Scottish National Party. Date lodged: Friday, 06 December 2024 Motion reference: S6M-15775 Current status: Has not yet achieved cross-party support That the Parliament celebrates 10 years since the Marriage and Civil Partnership (Scotland) Act 2014 came into force, legalising same-sex marriage in Scotland; welcomes what it sees as the decade of love, respect and freedom of choice that has followed the implementation of the Act on 16 December 2014; understands that over 9,300 same-sex marriages have been recorded by National Records of Scotland to date; recognises what it sees as the bravery and tenacity of LGBTQI+ and equalities campaigners who brought about the conditions for change, and who, it considers, continue to advance the rights of minorities; further recognises what it sees as the ongoing international struggle for marriage equality, with, it understands, same-sex marriage being legal in only 36 states across the globe; considers that Scotland is one of the most LGBTQI+ friendly nations in Europe, with strong LGBTQI+ legal equality and the world’s first LGBT-inclusive curriculum, and notes the calls on the Scottish Parliament to stay determined in its defence of the rights and wellbeing of LGBTQI+ people in Scotland, including in the Highlands and Islands region, and to act as a progressive global exemplar in the face of what it sees as reactionary political currents.
