New Environment Minister in post

The Scottish Raptor Study Group is sorry to see that Environment Minister Paul Wheelhouse MSP has been ‘re-shuffled’ in the new SNP Cabinet and has been moved to another post. We’ve worked closely with Paul through the Partnership for Wildlife Crime (PAW Scotland) and we thank him for his efforts in addressing wildlife crime, and particularly with the on-going issue of raptor persecution. We wish him well in his new position. The new Environment Minister is Aileen McLeod MSP and we look forward to a fruitful and productive relationship.
