AT the end of the debate on Humza Yousaf’s Programme for Government, Douglas Ross was accused of misleading the parliamentary chamber.
Secretary Michael Matheson, who lodged a point of order before Depute Presiding Officer Anabelle Ewing MSP concluded the debate.
Matheson said: “During the course of the debate earlier on this afternoon, Mr Ross, during his contribution stated, and I quote: ‘I mention Mr Matheson because he has refused to meet with GP campaigners in my local area and I had to write to him several times on this matter’.“As Mr Ross says, it is important that the chamber has all the facts on these matters. Presiding Officer, I was due to meet with the campaign group which Mr Ross refers to at 2.30pm this afternoon.
“It’s very clear Presiding Officer that the comments made by Mr Ross, that I had refused to meet with the campaign group is inaccurate and is misleading the chamber. Ewing thanked Matheson for his contribution, but stated what he had contributed was not a point of order.
