Bail and Release from Custody (Scotland) Bill: Stage 3
We are seeking to place statutory limits on the use of remand in the full knowledge—I think that we are in danger of agreeing on this—that there are many measures that will reduce the remand population and that we need to look at all the solutions. However, it is disingenuous of the Conservatives to complain to Parliament about our high remand population ...
NHS Waiting Times
However, the reality is that it is disingenuous and plainly incorrect to suggest that it was not an issue before, and it is disingenuous and plainly wrong to say today that we are making good progress.
Point of Order
Additionally, after the end of First Minister’s questions, Douglas Ross proceeded to share his misleading assertion further on social media and, to date, has not removed that post. That disingenuous conduct—Interruption. Members.

Scotland’s Finances and the Cost of Living
In the approach of the SNP Government, crucially, we find the same patterns of cover-up, secrecy and spin. Disingenuous tactics of dither and delay from this Government meant that the teachers strike dragged on for far longer than parents, pupils or teachers could afford.
Illegal Migration Bill
It is because they know that to say that there are safe and legal routes is a big lie and is completely disingenuous—it is sleight of hand and a con trick.
Local Government, Housing and Planning Committee
Community Planning Inquiry (Post-legislative Scrutiny of the Community Empowerment (Scotland) Act 2015)
It is a long story, but the council says that the process is robust and transparent. I feel that that is disingenuous, and I told it that. I have another point that relates to what Ellen Wright said about our involvement being a tick-box exercise.
