The motion

That the Parliament congratulates Sandra Brown OBE, founder of the Moira Anderson Foundation, journalist Rachael Revesz, and the team at Chalk and Blade for their Audible podcast series, Coatbridge: The Disappearance of Moira Anderson, which was recognised as a runner-up for Podcast of the Year at the 46th Scottish Press Awards; acknowledges what it sees as the powerful and moving storytelling that has brought renewed national attention to the tragic disappearance of Moira Anderson in 1957, and the vital issues surrounding childhood sexual abuse; commends Sandra Brown for her lifelong dedication through the Moira Anderson Foundation; further commends Sandra for her long-standing hard work with the Cross-Party Group on Adult Survivors of Childhood Sexual Abuse, and welcomes the recognition of what it sees as this impactful collaboration on a national platform, thanking all involved for their ongoing commitment to justice and truth.
