Petition by Angus Macmillan calling on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Government to amend the National Parks (Scotland) Act 2000 to remove local authority powers from national park authorities and establish them solely as advisory bodies and to remove such parts of the act to ensure that residents within the park boundaries have the same level of democracy as elsewhere in the country.
