SNP Euro-MP
Ian Hudghton will be embarking on his annual surgery tour of
Kincardineshire towns next week. Mr Hudghton will be visiting local towns
in his mobile office to allow constituents who may wish to raise any
European-related issues direct access to him.
Nigel Don,
SNP MSP for North-east Scotland will join forces with Ian Hudghton this
year to give Kincardineshire constituents the opportunity to raise any
issues relating to the Scottish Parliament.
Mr Hudghton’s
surgery tour is now an established fixture and in previous years many
people have taken up the opportunity to quiz their Euro-MP on various
topics.
Previewing
the tour, Ian Hudghton commented:
“I was very
pleased with the success of last year’s tour which resulted in quite a
number of enquiries and casework being picked up and I am looking forward
to getting out and about in the Mearns during September.
“Having
represented only the North-east previously, it is now quite a challenge
under the new system where I share responsibility for the whole of
Scotland, which is now one electoral “region”. However, I am determined
that this should not mean that Euro-MPs become more remote from the public
and this surgery tour is an excellent way of giving people direct access
to me in their own community.”
Nigel Don
said:
“Since
becoming an MSP in May, I have made every effort to visit communities in
the North-east and to be available to constituents. I am delighted to be
accompanying Ian on his tour which will give constituents access to both
an MSP and an MEP in their own town.
“Anyone is
welcome to come along at the advertised times and both Ian and I will very
happy to assist with any concerns they may have if we possibly can.”
