Lodged by Neil Bibby (Scottish Labour) Standard Motion 23 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament congratulates Alfredo Nutini on his retirement from Castelvecchi chip shop in Paisley after running the family business for over 50 years; notes that the chip shop was first opened by Alfredo's grandfather, Giovanni, after moving to Paisley from Barga, Italy, in 1914; understands that Alfredo then started working in the family business 53 years ago and that he has helped it become part of Paisley's heritage with the chip shop now in its 111th year; notes that his final two customers, whom he served on his last shift, was his son, award-winning artist, Paolo Nutini, and BBC journalist, Billy Sloan, and understands that Alfredo has now passed the reigns of the chip shop over to a colleague and that he is looking forward to a well-deserved retirement with his wife, Linda.
