  • Date lodged: Tuesday, 04 March 2025
  • Motion reference: S6M-16667.3
  • Current status: Taken in the Chamber on Wednesday, 05 March 2025

As an amendment to motion S6M-16667 in the name of Kate Forbes (Achieving a Fair Balance in the UK’s Economy), leave out from "deserve" to end and insert "benefit significantly from an abundance of direct investment initiatives established under the former UK Conservative administration, including £3 billion in Levelling Up funding, City Region and Growth Deals, Green Freeports, the UK Shared Prosperity Fund, and the British Business Bank; recognises that the importance and significance of these investments demonstrate the commitment that was held by the former UK Conservative administration to supporting economic growth in Scotland; acknowledges the full responsibility that is held by the Scottish Government for economic outcomes deriving from its devolved powers, and calls on the UK Labour administration to hold to the critical pledges made by its predecessors to level up Scotland’s economic prosperity."
