Public Service Reform: Empowering Staff, Service Users and Local Communities: Amendment 4

  • Submitted by: Malcolm Offord, West Scotland, Reform UK
  • Date lodged: Wednesday, 10 June 2026
  • Motion type: Amendment
  • Motion reference: S7M-00309.4
  • Current status: Due to be taken in the Chamber on Thursday, 11 June 2026

As an amendment to motion S7M-00309 in the name of Ivan McKee (Public Service Reform: Empowering Staff, Service Users and Local Communities), leave out from "welcomes" to end, and insert "believes that public money is limited, whereas demand is infinite;  further believes that meaningful reform starts in its chamber by using the time available to reach meaningful and defined decisions; believes that using parliamentary time to debate a motion that lacks any substantive action, and therefore leads to no definitive change, undermines the Parliament's expressed desire for reform; recognises that emphasis on public service provision should be focussed on outcomes and not inputs; believes that the recipients of public services are the most important people in this process and must be the focus of the Parliament's attention; looks forward to co-operation with staff and legitimate representative groups to raise standards and improve provision, and calls on the Scottish Government to publish a programme of concrete action."
