The motion

As an amendment to motion S4M-12591 in the name of Jackie Baillie (Supporting Scotland’s Economy), leave out from “that full” to end and insert “Scotland should have the powers that it needs to create a jobs-rich, more equal and more locally-based economy; further believes that this is key to reducing inequality and promoting a sustainable future; agrees that the UK Government’s fiscal austerity programme is having a disproportionate impact on the poorest in society and will reduce public spending to its lowest level since the 1930s, and calls on the UK Government to end the unfair cuts to public spending and invest to protect public services."
