Last-ditch effort to have tax reform debated at SNP conference

THERE has been a last-ditch attempt to have the SNP conference debate the use of the Scottish Government’s tax powers to tackle the cost-of-living crisis.

The SNP Trade Union Group (SNPTUG), which represents around 14,000 party members, has submitted a “topical motion” to be debated at conference – after their attempts to have a standard motion were rebuffed.

The group says that the “immediate, practical moves” called for in their topical resolution are necessary, warning that members would “not look kindly” on such proposals being rejected for consideration a second time.
