I agree absolutely with Bob Doris. I am not against development at the site, but we need to think carefully about the size and appropriateness of any development in the context of the surrounding environment.

In closing, I ask about the timescale for consideration and which minister will make the decision. It is clear that Ivan McKee has taken a view, and I do not believe that it would be appropriate for him to consider the matter. I note that others in Government—for example, ministers involved with Scottish Enterprise—have taken an interest before, as ministers first instructed Scottish Enterprise to dispose of its assets, including this land, and have been involved in discussions since. I would be grateful for confirmation on those points.

This has been the most controversial planning application in my constituency and, indeed, probably the whole of Scotland. We must ensure that, whatever decision is arrived at, it is fair, transparent and democratically accountable. I hope that ministers will recognise that Loch Lomond is the jewel in Scotland’s crown and act accordingly, because anything less would be an utter travesty.

I move,

That the Parliament agrees that the Lomond Banks planning application for a development at Balloch should be called in for determination by the Scottish Ministers.
