| Synopsis: |
The last 30 years have seen a huge increase in the popularity of mountaineering, hillwalking and climbing. There have been increases in the number of accidents in the hills and considerable media attention has been devoted to such incidents. In the light of concerns raised about the cost of Mountain Rescue services and the ability of Mountain Rescue teams to cope with increased pressure, the Scottish Affairs Committee has conducted this inquiry into operational and funding arrangements for mountain rescue. The Committee concludes that the current system of co-operation, between volunteer teams, the police and military, provides a service, at little cost to the public purse, that would be hard to improve. |
