Select Committee Inquiry
9 Sep 2026
The financial regulation of political parties in Scotland
Scottish Affairs Committee (Select)
Not accepting submissions

At its meeting on 9 September, the Committee agreed to inquire into the Electoral Commission's oversight of the funding and governance of political parties in Scotland, and the policies, processes and safeguards associated with the distribution of Short Money to political parties. Further information on the scope of this inquiry will be published in due course.

9 Sep 2026
The dual role of The Lord Advocate
Scottish Affairs Committee (Select)
Not accepting submissions

The Lord Advocate and her deputy the Solicitor General for Scotland each assume a “dual role” being both senior government legal advisers, and senior public prosecutors. There is a long-standing and ongoing political and constitutional debate within Scotland about whether the dual role should be split to better mitigate actual and/or perceived conflicts of interest between the two functions. This inquiry will appraise the case for and against splitting the dual role, and exploring different options for reform.

Read the call for evidence for more detail about the inquiry.

Core Tasks of Select Committees
Liaison Sub-Committee on Core Tasks of Select Committees (Select)

Submit Evidence (by 30 Oct 2026)


The Liaison Committee is examining whether the core tasks that guide select committee work remain fit for purpose. The inquiry will consider how committees can most effectively scrutinise government policy, strategy, spending and public appointments, and whether any changes to committee procedures or parliamentary privilege are needed to support this work.
