That the Parliament congratulates the Scottish referees who have been selected by UEFA as one of the 18 teams of match officials at the Euro 2016 finals in France; notes that the team will be led by the referee, William Collum, who will be assisted by Damien MacGraith, who is from the Republic of Ireland, and fellow Scottish officials, Frankie Connor, Bobby Madden and John Beaton; considers this to be a huge honour for all of the officials and follows a successful season, which started with the team taking charge of the UEFA Super Cup final between Barcelona and Sevilla; believes that the appointment of William and his team will be a boost to Scottish refereeing as it demonstrates to current and potential match officials the fantastic opportunities that are available in the Highlands and Islands and across the country through involvement at the highest level of football, and wishes William, Damien, Frankie, Bobby and John all the best for a successful tournament.
