Tibetan Parliamentary Delegation Explores Scottish Governance and Advocacy

Tibetan Parliamentary delegation, led by Speaker Khenpo Sonam Tenphel, engaged in a comprehensive study of Scottish parliamentary processes, focusing on devolution, legislative frameworks, and equality. Key highlights included sessions on Scottish devolution with MSP Sarah Boyack, insights into legislative roles from former Deputy Presiding Officer Linda Fabiani, and discussions on human rights with the Cross-Party Group on Tibet. The delegation also observed committee hearings on public finance and equality, held discussions with the Scottish Greens, and examined youth empowerment with the Scottish Youth Parliament. The visit underscored Scotland’s inclusive governance and provided a platform to address Tibetan human rights concerns.
