Economic Activity of Public Bodies (Overseas Matters) Bill - UK Legislation

  • Submitted by: Tom Arthur, Renfrewshire South, Scottish National Party.
  • Date lodged: Monday, 18 March 2024
  • Motion reference: S6M-12551
  • Current status: Taken in the Chamber on Wednesday, 20 March 2024

That the Parliament notes the legislative consent memorandum lodged by the Scottish Government on 19 July 2023; agrees not to give consent to the Economic Activity of Public Bodies (Overseas Matters) Bill; believes that the Bill would represent a wholly unnecessary and unwelcome limitation of the Scottish Ministers’ executive competence, and would act to stifle democracy, and calls on the UK Government to amend the Bill to remove the Scottish Ministers from its scope.


Supported by: George Adam, Joe FitzPatrick, Shona Robison
