Carried 75/28
As an amendment to motion S5M-10716 in the name of Shirley-Anne Somerville (Reversal of the UK Government’s Two-child Benefit Cap), insert at end "; notes that an estimated two thirds of children in poverty live in working households, 10% of all employees in Scotland are stuck in low pay, and that 72% of that group are women, and welcomes, therefore, the proposal for a New Deal for Working People, which has been endorsed by the TUC and includes plans to ban zero-hours contracts, outlaw fire and rehire practices, and raise the minimum wage in order to tackle insecure work and to make sure that work pays as a key route to ending poverty."
