Holyrood made a mistake when it changed the law to allow people on temporary visas to stand in our elections.
Our Right to Stand Bill will put it right.

The Scottish Conservatives’ Right to Stand Bill will stop foreign nationals without permanent permission to stay in the United Kingdom standing in our elections.
