The motion

That the Parliament congratulates Aberdeenshire Council on its Aden Lake Enhancement Project being awarded a grant of £21,185 from the SUEZ Communities Trust; understands the project aims to improve both the water quality and the biodiversity of the lake and mill pond in Aden Country Park through the creation of a wetland area, planting of marginal and deep-water plants and the selective felling of trees; recognises that a new pond-dipping platform, boardwalk, new interpretation panels and a shelter are to be developed as part of the project that will provide protection, improve access and enhance opportunities for outdoor learning; notes that the SUEZ Communities Trust distributes the landfill tax credits donated by SUEZ Recycling and Recovery UK to enhance communities through the Scottish Landfill Communities Fund; commends Aberdeenshire Council for its work at Aden Country Park, and wishes the Aden Lake Enhancement Project well.
