The motion

That the Parliament commends the work of Clydeside Action on Asbestos, which it considers to be Scotland's leading charity that supports people with asbestos-related conditions; applauds it on providing much-needed funding to employ two specialist nurses in the east and west of the country; believes that these experts will have a wealth of knowledge and help to boost the care that is given to people with respiratory conditions, including pleural diseases such as mesothelioma; considers that this will greatly support the excellent work carried out by Dr Kevin Blyth at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow and Dr Gouurab Choudhury and his colleagues at Edinburgh Royal Infirmary, and welcomes the additional services that will be provided thanks to the charity’s contribution.
