苏格兰零售联合会(SRC)敦促苏格兰议会议员支持政府的预算, The Scottish Retail Consortium (SRC) has urged Scottish Parliament members to support the government's budget, despite its imperfections. 预算包括冻结财产利率、取消拟议对鳄鱼征收的商业税率附加税,以及为警方打击零售犯罪提供额外资金。 The budget includes a freeze on property rates, removal of a proposed business rate surtax on grocers, and additional funding for police to combat retail crime. 然而,标准审查委员会批评预算缺乏降低业务成本的措施。 However, the SRC criticizes the budget for lacking measures to reduce business costs. 由新进步党领导的政府需要跨党派支持才能通过预算,其中包括为保健、社会护理和负担得起的住房提供大量资金。 The SNP-led government needs cross-party support to pass the budget, which includes substantial funding for health, social care, and affordable housing.
