Do you want to bring in anybody else, Pam?

Thanks for that, Fulton. We have clearly made progress, but we know from some pretty horrific evidence that we have some distance to go still in tackling some of that racism. Pam Gosal has the next question.

I see from the chat that Suzanne Munday is saying that that is an issue that the community raised with the Minister for Equalities and Older People, Christina McKelvie, recently. We are speaking to the minister next week, so we will maybe raise that point then as well.

We are coming to the end of the time that we have. We have covered a lot of ground, but do any of our committee members have a burning question that they want to ask?

I will follow on from that point. I may just stick with Davie Donaldson, initially. Obviously, the racism that Scotland鈥檚 Gypsy Traveller community experiences is not internationally unique. Every day, we see the horrors of what is happening in Ukraine, where the Gypsy Traveller community experiences the same sort of racism as does the Gypsy, Roma and Traveller community in Russia. Does anyone want to say a few words about that and about the experience of refugees who come to Scotland? I will go to Davie first, because it follows on from what he was saying.

Apologies.

Women鈥檚 Unfair Responsibility for Unpaid Care and Domestic Work

Meeting date: 8 March 2022

Joe FitzPatrick

The next agenda item is to continue taking evidence on women鈥檚 unfair responsibility for unpaid care and domestic work. The evidence session will have an intersectional focus on disability. We have two witnesses, who join us remotely. I welcome Dr Pauline Nolan, head of leadership and civic partnership with Inclusion Scotland; and Jenny Miller, chief executive of PAMIS, Promoting a More Inclusive Society.

I refer members to papers 1 and 2. I invite both of our witnesses to make brief opening statements, starting with Dr Pauline Nolan.

Pam Duncan-Glancy would like to ask a wee supplementary question.
