- Date lodged: Monday, 15 April 2013
- Motion reference: S4M-06225.1
- Current status: Taken in the Chamber on Tuesday, 16 April 2013
As an amendment to motion S4M-06225 in the name of John Swinney (Universal Services), leave out from "confirms" to end and insert “recognises the progress being made on cutting the deficit and placing the public finances on a sustainable footing; welcomes help for households in the UK budget, including the biggest ever rise in the income tax threshold, taking 186,000 Scots out of income tax altogether and cutting it by £600 for over two million more, and help with childcare costs for around 210,000 families in Scotland; further recognises the fiscal and demographic challenges facing governments and parliaments across the world and the importance of public service reform; believes that a multi-dimensional approach is required whereby the wider social, economic and environmental benefits from spending on universal services are always taken into account in decision-making, and supports the extension of free childcare to two-year-olds in Scotland to match proposals in the rest of the UK.”
