Future Business Programme (PB/S3/08/82) 3. Procedural motions (a) Approval of instruments (PB/S3/08/83) 4. Motions Review (PB/S3/08/84) 5. Publication scheme – consideration of any exempt papers 6. Date of next meeting – Tuesday 24 June 2008 PB/S3/08/82 PARLIAMENTARY BUREAU POSSIBLE MOTIONS FOR MEMBERS BUSINESS 1. Bureau Members will be aware that under Rule 5.6.1(c) the Bureau has a duty to ensure that there is a period of time available for Members’ Business following Decision Time. 2. Motions submitted for Members’ Business are shown below. *S3M-2143# Stuart McMillan: NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde Proposed Changes to Maternity Services—That the Parliament recognises that NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is currently undertaking a consultation on proposed changes to maternity services in Clyde; notes that the consultation is proposing to remove birthing services from the Community Maternity Units (CMUs) at the Inverclyde Royal Hospital in Greenock and the Vale of Leven Hospital in Alexandria and centralise them both at the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Paisley; highlights that the CMUs have been in operation since 2003; further highlights that the Independent Scrutiny Panel initiated by the Cabinet Secretary for Health and Wellbeing recommended that NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde maintain the CMUs for a further three years alongside a community education programme but this has been rejected by the board; further notes that in its consultation document the board states that it does “...not think there is anything to do to significantly improve this” in terms of promoting the usage of the CMU service, and invites the board to listen to the people of the Clyde area who wish the CMUs to remain open, an outcome which would also have the benefit of reducing the stress and strain on the staff at the Royal Alexandra Hospital. Supported by: Alasdair Allan*, Bob Doris*, Alex Neil*, Kenneth Gibson*, Bill Wilson*, Christina McKelvie* S3M-2137# Michael McMahon: Living and Dying with Advanced Heart Failure—That the Parliament welcomes the publication of Living and dying with advanced heart failure: a palliative care approach, by the Scottish Partnership for Palliative Care with the support of British Heart Foundation Scotland and the Scottish Government; notes that people with heart failure have a worse prognosis and poorer quality of life than many cancer patients and that 50% of advanced heart failure patients die within a year of diagnosis, many of them suddenly and unexpectedly, particularly in the west of Scotland; believes that uncertainty around prognosis should not be a barrier to people with advanced heart failure, or those with any other condition, receiving appropriate palliative care; is concerned that, despite the recommendations of the CHD and Stroke Task Force in 2001 that provision needed to be made for palliative care for advanced heart failure, too many of these vulnerable patients are still not getting the care they need at the time that they need it most, and believes that account should be taken of the report’s recommendations and that the needs of patients with conditions other than cancer, like advanced heart failure, should be explicitly addressed in the forthcoming palliative care strategy and the refreshed CHD and Stroke Strategy. Supported by: Jamie Hepburn*, Sandra White* S3M-2096# Jamie Hepburn: Gie’s the Nod—That the Parliament congratulates the Cumbernauld News and Strathclyde Police for working in conjunction with one another to run their “Gie’s the Nod” campaign which is designed to remind people of the need to inform the police of any criminal activity they may suspect is happening in their communities and welcomes the campaign as a means of highlighting the good work that has been undertaken to promote positive behaviour and good choices by young people, as well as that work which is being undertaken to bring to justice those responsible for criminal behaviour. Supported by: Shirley-Anne Somerville, Alasdair Allan, Rob Gibson, Kenneth Gibson, Bob Doris, Christina McKelvie, Alex Neil, Aileen Campbell, Elaine Smith, Stuart McMillan, Bill Kidd, Gil Paterson, Joe FitzPatrick* 1 PB/S3/08/82 S3M-2014# John Park: Rosyth to Zeebrugge Ferry Service—That the Parliament is deeply disappointed to learn of Superfast Ferries’ decision to end sailings from Rosyth to Zeebrugge from September 2008; recognises that the ferry link to Europe is vital to the Fife and Scottish economies; notes that the service has been a commercial success regularly operating at full capacity; is disappointed that Superfast does not plan to continue with sailings until an alternative operator is found, and hopes that an alternative operator can be found for this crucial ferry route. Supported by: James Kelly, Lewis Macdonald, Sandra White, Mike Pringle, Patrick Harvie, Shirley-Anne Somerville, Patricia Ferguson, Jim Tolson, Jamie Stone, Ted Brocklebank, Claire Baker, Helen Eadie, Elaine Murray, Iain Gray, Sarah Boyack, Rhona Brankin, George Foulkes, Stuart McMillan, Rob Gibson, Murdo Fraser, Marlyn Glen, Michael McMahon, Karen Gillon, Joe FitzPatrick, Bill Butler, Andy Kerr, Elaine Smith, Bill Kidd, Robin Harper, Hugh O’Donnell, Paul Martin, Mary Mulligan, Alison McInnes, Liam McArthur, Jackie Baillie, Ken Macintosh, Trish Godman, Brian Adam, Christopher Harvie, Robert Brown, Dr Richard Simpson, David Whitton, Jamie Hepburn, Pauline McNeill, Marilyn Livingstone, Michael Matheson, Gil Paterson, Cathie Craigie, Karen Whitefield, Tom McCabe, Jack McConnell, Hugh Henry* S3M-2011# Iain Smith: Enforcement of Planning Legislation—That the Parliament notes with concern the difficulties faced by planning authorities, such as Fife Council, in attempting to deal with breaches of planning legislation through enforcement and stop notices; considers that development without the appropriate planning approval undermines the rule of law and the planning process and that the present planning legislation does not provide a sufficient safeguard against unlawful development; believes that appeals against enforcement or stop notices should not be permitted on the grounds that planning permission for the development would have been granted or that a planning application for the development has been submitted; further believes that there should be a presumption against approval for any development that has been carried out without the appropriate planning approvals, and desires further debate on these proposals. Supported by: Robin Harper, Hugh O’Donnell, Mike Pringle, Jim Tolson, Robert Brown, Alison McInnes, Jamie Stone, Ross Finnie, Angela Constance S3M-2008# Bill Butler: Refugee Week Scotland 2008—That the Parliament notes that 16 to 22 June is Refugee Week Scotland 2008; recognises the indomitable spirit and courage of the world’s 14 million refugees who endure enormous suffering without losing hope, finding the strength to overcome despair and start a new life against seemingly overwhelming odds; views Refugee Week as an important platform to promote and celebrate Scotland’s proud traditions of providing sanctuary and support which help rebuild shattered lives; further notes that over 70 arts, cultural, sports and educational events will take place across Scotland, including a reception to be held in the Parliament on Wednesday 18 June 2008, which will encourage positive encounters between around 10,000 asylum seekers and refugees in Scotland and their new communities, and values the cultural, social and economic contributions that refugees make to Scottish society. Supported by: Robin Harper, Jamie Hepburn, Jackie Baillie, Hugh O’Donnell, Karen Whitefield, Jim Tolson, Elaine Murray, Michael McMahon, Jamie McGrigor, Mike Pringle, Liam McArthur, Christina McKelvie, Stuart McMillan, Bashir Ahmad, Christine Grahame, Patricia Ferguson, Sandra White, Patrick Harvie, Cathy Peattie, Brian Adam, Rob Gibson, George Foulkes, Joe FitzPatrick, Roseanna Cunningham, Bill Wilson, Marlyn Glen, Johann Lamont, Bob Doris, Mary Mulligan, Elaine Smith, Helen Eadie, Shirley-Anne Somerville, Malcolm Chisholm, Dr Richard Simpson, Robert Brown, Trish Godman, Pauline McNeill, Ross Finnie, Michael Matheson, Irene Oldfather, Gil Paterson, Jack McConnell, Tom McCabe, Keith Brown S3M-1991# Margo MacDonald: Scanner Donation to NHS Lothian—That the Parliament believes that the Royal Bank of Scotland’s donation of a scanner to NHS Lothian, while generous and of undoubted value to the bank’s employees, the general public and medical researchers, nevertheless, if replicated by other companies or interests, represents possible 2 PB/S3/08/82 external direction of NHS boards’ policies, priorities and resource management, and therefore calls for further debate on how donations are made to the NHS before precedents are established. S3M-1975# Gavin Brown: South Edinburgh Suburban Railway—That the Parliament notes the wide public and cross-party political support that the campaign for the reopening of the South Sub railway has gathered; acknowledges the importance of the work carried out by groups such as Capital Rail Action Group (CRAG), E-Rail and TRANSform Scotland; observes that the most recent report on the reopening of the South Sub did not contain a benefit-cost ratio, which was positive in previous reports; believes that the reopening of the South Sub would ease the impact of traffic on the main routes into the city as well as playing

The health boards are listed in alphabetical order, followed by the name of the MSPs, their party and the constituency or region they represent. The boundaries of health boards and parliamentary constituencies do not coincide, so some constituencies overlap into two or more health boards. Where this happens the MSP representing the constituency will be listed under all relevant health boards. Similarly, where the boundary of a Scottish Parliament region overlaps into two or more health boards all of the MSPs elected to represent that region will be listed under all relevant health boards.

  • © Patricia M`Cafferty, May 2004. Abstract
    PATRICIA MCCAFFERTY WORKING THE 'THIRD WAY': NEW LABOUR, EMPLOYMENT RELATIONS, AND SCOTTISH DEVOLUTION THESIS PRESENTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY, DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY, UNIVERSITY OF GLASGOW MAY 2004 © PATRICIA M`CAFFERTY, MAY 2004. ABSTRACT Labour's election victory in 1997 was heralded as a new era, the dawn of a Third Way, a novel attempt to chart a unique political course overcoming the perceivedlimitations of both New Right and Old Labour. In this thesis I explore the era of New Labour generally and, in particular, the impact of the Third Way on working lives. Key to my analysis is New Labour's attempt to synthesise oppositional interests,in particular those of capital and labour. This involves a crucial rhetoric of flexibility, competitivenessand partnership. My research explores the rhetoric of New Labour in relation to the reality of this new force in power. It does this by: " drawing out key features in the development of New Labour, especially its relation to Old Labour; " examining central elementsof New Labour ideology; " arguing that Scotland should be seen as central to the transition from Old to New :Labour; " utilising a case study of industrial relations developments in a major electronics factory in the West of Scotland and, to a lesser extent, key developmentsin public sector employment. My main finding is that where New Labour's ideology promisespositive benefits, the form of its implementation has negative impacts for workers. Since I take New Labour as a process, my thesis concludes with a more speculative exploration of possible future developments,both in relations to New Labour's role in them, and their possible impact on the New Labour project.

  • Labour Link News October 2009
    October 2009 Million Voices for Change - Public Works UNISON Scotland has launched its 'Public Works' campaign with the message that public service cuts will increase costs for ordinary families and will delay economic recovery. 'Public Works' is the Scottish arm of the union's 'Million Voices for Change' campaign. UNISON has warned that the headlong rush to cut and privatise public services will lead to delays in coming out of recession It has produced a leaflet demonstrating the importance of public services to everyone's lives and pointing to the huge costs that would fall on people if public services were not available. The ‘A Day in the Life’ leaflet follows an average woman through her day and points out our dependence on public services - from water and sewerage, through environmental health and refuse collection, to education and health care. It points out that all of us rely on public services, not just the most vulnerable, for whom they can be a lifeline. http://www.unison- scotland.org.uk/publicworks/index.html Scottish Labour MSP’s have been quick to add their support to the campaign, including shadow cabinet members, at an event in the Scottish Parliament during trade union week. The UNISON Scotland Labour Link Committee also met recently in Parliament to promote the campaign. They were joined by the Convenor of the UNISON Group of MSPs, Karen Gillon MSP to consider how best to build these ideas into the Scottish Labour manifesto for 2011. Shadow Environment Secretary Sarah Boyack MSP Scottish Parliament Candidate Selection The Boundary Commission for Scotland has now confirmed the revised constituency boundaries for the Scottish elections in 2011.
