The Cost of Living

As an amendment to motion S4M-07872 in the name of Jackie Baillie (The Cost of Living), leave out from “and believes,” to end and insert "welcomes the action taken by the Scottish Government to support household incomes including the council tax freeze, the maintenance of free bus travel for older people, the extension of free nursery provision, the introduction of free personal care for older people, free university tuition and abolition of bridge tolls, and believes that, with independence, including control of taxation and welfare, Scotland can be a beacon of progressive action to tackle poverty and maintain household incomes.”
