By Councillor Cook - Edinburgh Slavery and Colonialism Legacy Review By Councillor Cook - Edinburgh Slavery and Colonialism Legacy Review “Council: Thanks Professor Sir Geoff Palmer and other members of the Council’s Edinburgh Slavery and Colonialism Legacy Review, even though their identities remain unknown to the residents of Edinburgh, for their work thus far. Notes some concerns that have been raised relating to the conduct of the review, not least by Professor Peter Mathieson, Principle and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Edinburgh in relation to the parallel review of the University's role in the same matter. Accepts there are many aspects of history about which reasonable people can disagree. Affirms that conducting such debate in a respectful way in the public domain is the foundation of good scholarship and the way to promote a better-balanced collective understanding about events that took place in our past. Instructs the Chief Executive to write to Sir Geoff and other members of the Council’s Review to draw their attention to the Standards Commission of Scotland's Code of Conduct for Councillors and Members of Devolved Public Bodies, in the hope that this might provide helpful guidance as to the behaviour that is expected of and by Councillors and other public servants.” Additional documents: |
