  • Submitted by: Rhoda Grant, Highlands and Islands, Scottish Labour.
  • Date lodged: Monday, 07 October 2019
  • Motion reference: S5M-19287.2
  • Current status: Taken in the Chamber on Tuesday, 08 October 2019

As an amendment to motion S5M-19287 in the name of Ivan McKee (Supporting Innovation), leave out from "notes" to end and insert "recognises that, without devising and implementing a comprehensive industrial strategy, the Scottish Government cannot truly tackle the country’s stagnated economic growth, poor earnings growth and low productivity levels; considers that failure to create a framework for industries has led to Scotland’s gross expenditure on R&D as a percentage of GDP being lower than that for the UK, EU and OECD countries, and urges the Scottish Government to implement an industrial strategy that supports expenditure in R&D activity among businesses that helps build an innovative and prosperous economic future for the people of Scotland."
