That the Parliament considers that the design and impact of Scotland’s economy creates a series of “failure demands”, resulting from what it sees as avoidable damage to the health of people and the planet, including illness from air pollution, inadequate housing, and poverty related to unfair pay; further considers that alongside the potentially devastating human cost, failure demands require significant expenditure for the Scottish and UK governments in Scotland, including in the East Lothian constituency, for example, in topping up wages and treating avoidable health conditions; welcomes the recent report by the Wellbeing Economy Alliance, Failure Demand: Counting the true costs of an unjust and unsustainable economic system, which provides, it considers, important evidence on failure demand expenditures in Scotland; commends the work that many non-government organisations across Scotland perform to, it believes, ameliorate the worst impacts of failure demand in the here and now, and notes the view that there is significant scope to avoid the costs of failure demands to the Scottish and UK governments if root causes are addressed by redesigning the economy towards a Wellbeing Economy, with the purpose of creating collective wellbeing that ensures a healthy environment, fair pay and adequate housing provision from the outset.
