The visit is part of a parliamentary inquiry into the sustainability of Scotland’s finances.
It follows the Scottish Government’s forecast that public spending in Scotland is set to outstrip income expected by £1 billion in 2024/25, rising to £1.9 billion in 2027-28.
This means the government is forecasting that it will not have sufficient money to fund the spending it currently wishes to make.
The politicians are meeting with local people, organisations and businesses to hear their views on what the Scottish Government’s priorities should be in its 2024-25 budget.
Their views will help inform the committee’s scrutiny of the government’s budget in the autumn.
Finance and Public Administration Committee Convener Kenneth Gibson MSP said:
“The focus of our work this year is how the budget for 2024-25 and beyond will ensure Scotland’s finances are sustainable in both the short and longer-term.
“It is an incredibly important subject matter given the forecast budget pressures and longer-term demographic challenges in Scotland.
“Coming to Largs and talking to North Coast people – including businesses, third sector bodies and residents – will enable us to hear different views of the impact of the Scottish Government’s tax and spending decisions.
“And that matters because the budget and the long-term sustainability of Scotland’s finances will affect everyone in the country.
“I am delighted that we will also meet the following day in Seamill to discuss our committee’s work programme for the forthcoming parliamentary year.”
