Scottish National Party — Moray West, Nairn and Strathspey

Speaking in the House of Commons on 22 October 2025

Debate

Devolution in Scotland

Contribution

It is the adult disability payment in Scotland, rather than PIP. Fundamentally—I am sure the hon. Lady knows this—if the UK Government decide to cut a vast amount out of the social security system, that will have a really significant impact on the Scottish budget. Week after week, Labour Members call for more money to be spent on certain things in Scotland, but at the same time they seem to be suggesting a substantial cut to the Scottish budget with the change to the social security budget.
