Lodged by Lorna Slater (Scottish Green Party) Standard Motion 12 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament welcomes the first national Republic Day to be held on 5 May 2024; notes that the day will raise awareness of, and celebrate, what it sees as the growing campaign for a Scottish Republic, with events held across Edinburgh alongside Republic Edinburgh; understands that the asks of the campaign group, Our Republic, highlight the view that, in Scotland, the people should be sovereign with power being democratically accountable, and believes that Scotland should see an end to monarchy rule, with an independent Scotland taking its place on the world stage as a fully democratic nation.
