Motions submitted for Members’ Business are shown below. S4M-00087#- Liam McArthur ( Orkney Islands ) ( Scottish Liberal Democrats ) : Damaging Impact of Air Discount Scheme Changes: That the Parliament notes the benefits that the Air Discount Scheme has brought to Scotland’s island communities since it was first introduced in 2006; considers that, even with the Air Discount Scheme reduction, the cost of flying to and from the islands imposes a considerable financial burden on island life; understands, therefore, the very real concerns that the exclusion of business travel from the Air Discount Scheme has caused to businesses as well as to the public and voluntary sectors in the islands; considers that the change, on which there was no prior consultation, means that businesses and other organisations now either have to face even higher travel costs or have to miss out on opportunities to take part in meetings and other events on the Scottish mainland and further afield, and would welcome an urgent review of the impact of the exclusion of business travel.
