flag SRC urges Scottish Parliament to support budget despite lacking business cost reductions.

flag The Scottish Retail Consortium (SRC) has urged Scottish Parliament members to support the government's budget, despite its imperfections. flag 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. flag However, the SRC criticizes the budget for lacking measures to reduce business costs. flag The SNP-led government needs cross-party support to pass the budget, which includes substantial funding for health, social care, and affordable housing.
