The motion

That the Parliament records, with sadness, the death of Firefighter Barry Martin, of Rosyth; notes that Mr Martin passed away following the serious injuries that he sustained during a large-scale fire at the former Jenners building in Edinburgh; reflects on the description of Mr Martin by Matt Wrack, general secretary of the Fire Brigades Union, as a "dedicated firefighter and well-loved member of the firefighting community"; recognises that Mr Martin’s death is a reminder of the selfless courage that Scotland's firefighters demonstrate in the line of duty each and every day, and sends condolences to Mr Martin’s family, friends and colleagues at this sad time.
