I am grateful to the 320 people who recently applied for the position of Constituency Assistant at my Parkhead Office.

I have selected six candidates for interview, which I anticpate conducting next week.

Due to the significant volume of applications I have received it has, unfortunately, been extremely difficult to respond to everyone individually.

I would, however, like to thank you for the time you invested in applying and wish you the very best for the future.

John Mason MSP
