Members' Business Motion · S1M-01023 · Session 1
Failure to Reinstate Arbroath to Assisted Area Status
The motion
That the Parliament notes with concern the decision not to reinstate Arbroath to the Assisted Area boundary proposals; recognises the strength of Arbroath’s case for re-inclusion and the potentially devastating effect exclusion could have on the local economy; understands that, whilst this is a reserved matter, the Scottish Executive has worked closely with the Scotland Office and the Department of Trade and Industry in formulating the Assisted Area map in Scotland; requests that the Scottish Executive state clearly the criteria on which this decision was made, and invites the Executive to seek reconsideration of this decision.
