  • Submitted by: Fiona Hyslop, Linlithgow, Scottish National Party.
  • Date lodged: Tuesday, 10 September 2024
  • Motion reference: S6M-14405.3
  • Current status: Taken in the Chamber on Wednesday, 11 September 2024

As an amendment to motion S6M-14405 in the name of Graham Simpson (Ending Peak Rail Fares on ScotRail Trains), leave out from "calls" to end and insert "notes that the pioneering Scottish Government 12-month trial removal of peak rail fares has not been introduced anywhere else in Britain; regrets that the trial, which cost up to £40 million of Scottish Government support, was only a partial success in encouraging rail use; notes the reluctant decision by the Scottish Government to end the trial due to the fiscal constraints chosen by successive UK administrations; encourages rail passengers to take advantage of the new range of reduced season, flexi and super off-peak tickets, and calls on the Scottish Government to make use of the valuable data from the trial in further developing its rail fare policy."
