Climate Emergency: Ambition and Action: Amendment 1

  • Submitted by: Douglas Lumsden, North East Scotland, Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party
  • Date lodged: Monday, 25 September 2023
  • Motion type: Amendment
  • Motion reference: S6M-10597.1
  • Current status: Taken in the Chamber on Tuesday, 26 September 2023

As an amendment to motion S6M-10597 in the name of Màiri McAllan (Climate Emergency: Ambition and Action), leave out from “ambition” to end and insert “practical consideration, international co-operation, fairness to consumers and consistent achievement of targets to realistically fulfil net zero and biodiversity ambitions; recognises that policies aimed at reaching net zero goals must be affordable and should not impose expensive costs on households and businesses; welcomes, therefore, the new net zero policy announcements from the UK Government, which provide extensive household upgrade support with more scope for consumer freedom, bring the UK petrol and diesel car sales timelines in line with the European Union’s and demonstrate a commitment to realistic achievement of ambitious environmental goals without alienating households, and deeply regrets the Scottish Government’s hostility to these announcements, which only makes tackling climate change and biodiversity loss a more divisive issue.”
