UNIONS, think tanks, charities and an SNP-affiliated organisation have written to First Minister Nicola Sturgeon to demand the pausing of the National Care Service (NCS) Bill.
The SNP’s trade union group executive is among the signatories to the letter, sent today, along with the Scottish TUC, Unite, GMB Scotland, Who Cares? Scotland and the Scottish Pensioners’ Forum.
It is the latest in a long line of requests for a rethink on the Bill.
