Amendment to S4M-12325 Protecting Scotland's Communities

The amendment

As an amendment to motion S4M-12325 in the name of Jenny Marra (Protecting Scotland's Communities), leave out from "regrets" to end and insert "accepts that these challenges make detailed scrutiny of the NHS in Scotland essential; notes the importance of rigorously produced and publicly available data to the process of that scrutiny; acknowledges the representations from the British Medical Association and the Royal College of Nursing supporting further consideration of the long-term sustainability of NHS Scotland; considers it necessary to ensure effective planning of primary and social care in order to remove pressure from hospital emergency departments, and regrets attempts to misuse the debate on the future of the NHS for political ends, whether by the use of rhetoric such as 'weaponising' or through the claims made surrounding this valued and important institution toward the end of last year’s referendum campaign.”
