Glasgow residents have just under one week left to share their views on parades and public processions.

Glasgow City Council wants to know residents’ opinion on marches to determine whether the impact they have on local communities.

Various questions regarding public processions are asked but the council stresses respondents will not be quizzed on whether there should be a blanket ban on parades, as this lies outwith the legal powers of the local authority.

Glasgow City Council tweeted that residents have until December 23 to share their views.

The tweet read: "We've been asking people for their views on the impact of parades and processions on Glasgow and their local community, as part of a wider consultation.

"The deadline for responses is next Monday - December 23."

The consultation process comes a series of violent clashes in the city, with police responding to "significant disorder" sparked by counter-protesters to an Irish Unity march in Govan on August 30.

Riots broke out when the counter-protesters clashed with the flute band , resulting in 2 men being arrested and charged.

The following weekend, a police officer was injured by a pyrotechnic and 11 were arrested as two republican marches were held in Glasgow city centre.

Hundreds of Loyalist demonstrators also staged protests in George Square on September 14 over the Public Processions Committee's plans to temporarily ban a number of parades , with mounted officers and riot units out in force for a third weekend running.

The online questionnaire runs until December 23 and is part of a wider consultation on processions which includes focus groups and in-depth interviews with key organisations, including those that regularly hold public processions.

Consultation responses will inform the review of parades and processions the council announced last month, with a report expected to go before members next year.
