As an amendment to motion S6M-16488 in the name of Tom Arthur (Employer National Insurance Contributions), leave out from "recognises" to end and insert “welcomes the record £5.2 billion of additional funding for Scotland delivered as a result of the UK Government’s Autumn Budget; agrees with the STUC that the additional positive measures that are set out in the draft Scottish Budget 2025-26 are ‘dependent on UK Government funding’; regrets that the fiscal changes called for by the Scottish Government would significantly reduce the level of funding available to Scotland’s public services; understands that the First Minister has publicly advocated for a cut to Scotland’s budget of £636 million; regrets that the Scottish National Party administration’s failure to grow Scotland’s economy has negatively impacted the level of funding available in the Scottish Budget over many years; understands that decisions around the level of staffing in Scotland’s public services are devolved to the Scottish Government, and calls on the Scottish Government to ensure that the record funding delivered by the UK Government reaches the frontline services that need it most.”
