The motion
As an amendment to motion S4M-08462 in the name of Angela Constance (Women and Work), leave out from "agrees that" to end and insert "aspires to full gender equality; believes in a United Kingdom where women can play a fulfilling and equal part in realising economic growth and creating a more social, just, fair and decent society; further believes that the barriers to women’s participation include, but are not exclusive to, the lack of affordable, flexible childcare and that, among other issues, caring responsibilities, low pay and equal pay and tackling occupational segregation are just as important, and believes that progress will only be made when the debate is centred on the real, lived experience of women, not the constitution."
