Motion · S6M-11546.2 · 5 Dec 2023
Fiscal Framework Review
The motion
As an amendment to motion S6M-11546 in the name of Shona Robison (Fiscal Framework Review), leave out from first "limited" to end and insert "improvements to the Scottish Fiscal Framework, following a joint review with the UK Government, and welcomes the outcome, which will protect and enhance devolved powers, providing more flexibility and choice than ever before, continuing to build on the cross-party agreement reached at the Smith Commission in 2014, but condemns the Scottish Government’s repeated failure to treat local authorities fairly in setting the Scottish Budget or to establish a new fiscal framework that ensures that local authorities get a fair share of resources, harming their efforts to reduce poverty, grow local economies, tackle the climate emergency and invest in essential public services, including schools."
