The motion

That the Parliament congratulates and commends Scotmid for its contribution of over £50,000, resulting in an automated defibrillator being placed in each of 40 of Scotmid’s main stores and Semichem and Fragrance House shops in towns across Scotland; notes that this is part of a programme to provide community public access defibrillators in areas where they can help save lives, working in partnership with the British Heart Foundation and the Scottish Ambulance Service, and applauds John Brodie, the Chief Executive of Scotmid, on this initiative, in particular for ensuring the training of all of the volunteers and neighbouring companies that have stated their support for what it considers such a visionary initiative.
