First Minister’s Questions followed by member lunch with Angus Robertson MSP
First Minister's Questions & discussion with Angus Robertson MSP
Join fellow IoD members for a unique opportunity to sit in the viewing gallery during First Minster’s Questions at the Scottish Parliament, followed by lunch with Cabinet Secretary for Constitution, External Affairs and Culture and Edinburgh Central MSP Angus Robertson at Wedgwood restaurant.
Places at this event are very limited and available on a first come basis, so don’t delay in booking for what should be a fascinating insight into the workings of the parliament and FMQs alongside a roundtable discussion with a Cabinet Minster and local MSP.
Members only Cost £35 inc VAT including two course lunch
All attendees will be asked to provide a brief biography by email ahead of the event.
*Please note that Mr Robertson has this event in his diary and has committed to attending the lunch, but there is always a small chance that he may be called away on urgent parliamentary business, if this does happen we’ll still go ahead with FMQs and lunch and will try our best to find an alternative MSP to join us.
