  • Date lodged: Wednesday, 16 March 2022
  • Motion type: Amendment
  • Motion reference: S6M-03650.3
  • Current status: Taken in the Chamber on Thursday, 17 March 2022

As an amendment to motion S6M-03650 in the name of Patrick Harvie (Delivering on Active Travel Commitments), leave out from “the Scottish” to end and insert “increased spending on active travel as called for by the Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party and others; believes that cycling, walking and wheeling can contribute to people’s health and wellbeing; further believes that every schoolchild should have the opportunity to benefit from cycle training; welcomes moves to encourage people to travel, particularly short distances, without the use of a motor vehicle, but accepts that for many people the car is essential; believes that increasing rates of active travel can help to fight climate change, but calls on the Scottish Government to ensure that local authorities have the necessary resources to improve their active travel infrastructure, and further believes that failing to do so will run the risk that there will be a postcode lottery of exemplar projects in Scotland.”
