Girls Night in Ayrshire, Looking After the Safety of Women

Lodged by Sharon Dowey Standard Motion 26 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament recognises the work of Girls Night in Ayrshire, which is a new group that has been launched to look after women’s safety in the area in response to the reported recent increase of spiking incidents reported across Scotland; acknowledges that it has sent an open letter to Ayrshire's pubs and clubs in a bid to make the community safer; understands that many young women currently feel unsafe about going out in the evenings; notes that Police Scotland and universities and colleges across the country are working to address these concerns, and wishes groups such as Girls Night in Ayrshire well as they aim to eradicate spiking.
