Scotland’s Place in the European Union - Amendment 3

  • Submitted by: Willie Rennie, North East Fife, Scottish Liberal Democrats.
  • Date lodged: Monday, 29 January 2024
  • Motion type: Amendment
  • Motion reference: S6M-12004.3
  • Current status: Taken in the Chamber on Tuesday, 30 January 2024

As an amendment to motion S6M-12004 in the name of Angus Robertson (Scotland’s Place in the European Union), leave out from "notes" to end and insert "believes that close UK-European cooperation is a benefit to Scotland and the whole of the UK; notes that work must be done to rebuild the UK’s relationship with the EU and the trust and partnerships that have been badly damaged by the UK Conservative administration; believes that a comprehensive step-by-step plan is required to rebuild those ties with the UK’s nearest neighbours, removing barriers and forging a new partnership built on cooperation, and that these essential steps on the road to EU membership will help restore the economy, prosperity and opportunities; considers that, while this work is ongoing, there are choices that can be taken right now by the Scottish Government to ensure that people in Scotland can still access the many benefits of a close relationship with the EU, and calls, therefore, on the Scottish Government to fulfil its commitment to create a full replacement Erasmus scheme, following the example of the Welsh Government and its Taith scheme."
