Supporting Success in Food and Drink in Scotland
The motion
As an amendment to motion S6M-00990 in the name of Mairi Gougeon (Supporting Success in Food and Drink in Scotland), insert at end "; condemns the unacceptable level of food poverty in Scotland and recognises that the ever-rising use of foodbanks in Scotland is morally unjustifiable in a country where fresh, quality food is plentiful; notes that the COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated food insecurities and highlighted the urgency for a Good Food Nation Bill, and believes that enshrining the right to food in Scots law should be an early priority for the Scottish Government in the current parliamentary session."
