As an amendment to motion S5M-05479 in the name of Anas Sarwar (Scrap the NHS Pay Cap), leave out from "the NHS pay cap" to end and insert "NHS staff deserve to be valued and supported; notes that the Scottish Government has let down NHS staff by failing to carry out long-term workforce planning; acknowledges that nearly half of the NHS workforce believes that there are not enough staff for them to do their job properly; believes that widespread short staffing is damaging for staff morale and patient safety; considers that recruitment and retention issues are in large part due to working conditions; calls for efficiencies to be made in areas such as spending on agency and locum staff, and notes concerns from groups such as the Royal College of Nursing over staffing levels in NHS Scotland."
