18Questions
19Notices of motion
(a)by Councillor Niall Walker

"Council notes the proposed erosion of civil liberties, for example by enforcing the use of Identity Cards. In addition, it has been suggested that police powers of detention without charge might be increased.

Scottish airports have been used as refuelling points for rendition flights.

All of this is evidence that the current Labour Government shows little interest in hard won civil liberties."
(b)by Councillor Billy McAllister

"Council calls on the Westminster Government to cancel plans to replace the Trident nuclear weapon system with anew £25 billion weapon system. Council calls on the Government to instead direct that funding at education, health, crime prevention and local services."
(c)by Bailie Iris Gibson

"In view of the current concerns about global warming, Council should lead by example and save energy in the City Chambers, East Building and other Council properties. Despite many written reports and spoken words on the subject, lighting and heating continues to be used unnecessarily."
