Cross Party Group on Independent Convenience Stores (AGM) “Rising Costs of Doing Business in Scotland” 11th Nov. 6-7.30pm
Our next Cross Party Group (CPG) on Independent Convenience Stores is due to take place on Tuesday 11th November at 6pm in person at the Scottish Parliament in committee room 3.
The topic is set to be “Rising Costs of Doing Business in Scotland” and this will be our Annual Group Meeting (AGM).
With the next UK budget to take place soon after the CPG and the Scottish budget to follow on from that, this presents a good opportunity to discuss these issues. The speakers are:
Professor Leigh Sparks - Professor of Retail Studies, University of Stirling
Ewan MacDonald-Russell - Deputy Head, Scottish Retail Consortium
Abdul Majid – Independent retailer, Baba's Kitchen & Costcutter Bellshill
Following the presentations, there will be an opportunity for a Q&A session with our speakers and MSPs present.
We would be delighted to have you in attendance in what promises to be an interesting discussion. We will gather in the Parliament’s visitor reception before proceeding to the event room.
Please confirm your attendance, or that of a colleague by signing up on Eventbrite:
