The UK Budget – Scotland’s Priorities - Amendment

  • Submitted by: Lorna Slater, Lothian, Scottish Green Party.
  • Date lodged: Monday, 23 September 2024
  • Motion reference: S6M-14614.1
  • Current status: Taken in the Chamber on Tuesday, 24 September 2024

As an amendment to motion S6M-14614 in the name of Shona Robison (The UK Budget – Scotland’s Priorities), insert at end "; believes that, whilst the fiscal levers available to the Scottish Government are inadequate to fully protect public services and communities from UK Government austerity, it must use every power available to address the urgent social, economic and environmental challenges that Scotland faces, and calls, therefore, on the Scottish Government to explore all avenues to fiscal sustainability, including maximal use of existing tax powers, a review of tax reliefs and other subsidies, reform of local government finances, and the creation of new local revenue raising powers, such as the carbon emissions land tax and cruise ship levy, and to reprioritise spending away from programmes that undermine its core missions of tackling child poverty and the climate emergency."
