Amendment to S4M-08348 The Future of the Defence Industry in Scotland

The amendment

As an amendment to motion S4M-08348 in the name of Johann Lamont (The Future of the Defence Industry in Scotland), insert at end "; notes that no complex warships have been built outside the UK since the Second World War; recognises that the work of the UK Government and UK companies in partnership with other countries to design defence equipment does not constitute building sovereign capabilities outside the UK, and notes the inconsistency between the SNP administration's demands to build British warships at the same time as endorsing the Scottish Global Forum report, which recommends buying anything but British."
