The motion

That the Parliament acknowledges that the City of Inverness Highland Games will return for the 200th year on 16 July 2022, with the first game being held in 1822; notes the cultural significance of the Games, which, it understands, is one of the largest events in Inverness and brings in thousands of visitors every year to take part in a variety of athletic competitions, listen to the pipe bands and watch Highland dancing; celebrates this significant landmark, and commends all those at Highlife Highland for their hard work and commitment in organising the event.
