Should the Scottish Parliament be given full parliamentary privilege to protect MSPs from legal action?
Scottish Conservative MSP Stephen Kerr argues that Holyrood lacks the parliamentary privilege held by Westminster. This prevents MSPs from freely debating matters of public interest without fear of legal action. The issue arose during the Holyrood inquiry into the Scottish Government's handling of complaints against Alex Salmond, where parliamentarians were constrained in discussing evidence.
