Implications for Culture, Creative Industries and Tourism following the EU Referendum

As an amendment to motion S5M-02795 in the name of Fiona Hyslop (Implications for Culture, Creative Industries and Tourism following the EU Referendum), leave out from "the country's existing" to end and insert "Scotland’s position within the UK and ensuring that Scotland retains unfettered access to the UK single market and leaves the EU on the same terms as the rest of the UK; recognises the potentially severe negative impact that any future Scottish independence referendum would have on the economic growth of Scotland’s culture, creative industries and tourism sectors, in particular, because Scotland exports more in creative industries to the rest of the UK than it does to its EU and other international partners; acknowledges that it is in Scotland’s interests to maintain a strong relationship with its European and other international partners, and recognises the benefits that Brexit may bring to these industries through the UK Government concluding free-trade agreements with the EU and other countries around the globe."
