  • Submitted by: Jenny Gilruth, Mid Fife and Glenrothes, Scottish National Party
  • Date lodged: Tuesday, 02 June 2026
  • Motion type: Motion For Debate
  • Motion reference: S7M-00249
  • Current status: Due to be taken in the Chamber on Thursday, 04 June 2026

That the Parliament believes in fair, progressive and sustainable taxation to support the delivery of public services; welcomes the progress made towards the creation of a private jet tax and a mansion tax; supports actions to go further and seek the powers necessary to take action on so-called ghost flights of private planes; recognises that Scotland’s current powers limit the scope for additional wealth taxation, and endorses the Scottish Government’s plans to explore what further steps could be taken either within the current system or with full fiscal powers.
