Recognising the Role of Haven Products

  • Submitted by: Richard Leonard, Central Scotland, Scottish Labour.
  • Date lodged: Thursday, 05 September 2024
  • Motion reference: S6M-14337
  • Current status: Achieved cross-party support

That the Parliament notes what it sees as the role that supported businesses play in providing employment for disabled people, including the contribution that they make to closing the disability employment gap through supporting disabled people to work, thereby promoting inclusion, independence and wellbeing; regrets the reported threat to 60 jobs at Haven Products in Larbert due, it understands, to the removal of a contract for document digitisation by the Scottish Government and the severe reduction in a contract to produce nursing uniforms for the NHS, and notes the calls for the Scottish Government to step in urgently to save these jobs and to ensure that this supported business and its workforce have a secure future.
