The draft opens in your own email app. Read it, add the details of your problem and change anything you want before sending.
MSPs deal with the Scottish NHS, schools, housing law, policing, courts, Scottish benefits, transport and Scottish income tax. Their office can also take up a problem with a Scottish public body.
Universal Credit, immigration and most employment law are UK matters for your MP. Bins, council housing repairs and many local roads are usually council matters. The postcode tool works out who should receive each request.
Names, parties and public contact details come from the Scottish Parliament’s official open data. The checked date is shown on every page. MSPs can change, so if something looks wrong, tell me and I will check it.
