I would like to raise a concern about the admissibility of amendments that were lodged ahead of today’s stage 3 proceedings on the Social Security (Amendment) (Scotland) Bill. Amendments 21 and 22, on winter heating assistance, which were lodged by Paul O’Kane on behalf of the Labour Party in Scotland, would make a significant demand on the Scottish budget by seeking to extend, by statute, winter heating assistance to some individuals of pensionable age.
