That the Parliament welcomes the campaign to add a dedicated National Outcome on Care to Scotland’s National Performance Framework (NPF); understands that more than 30 organisations have now given their support to the Scotland Cares campaign, which has been jointly organised by Oxfam Scotland, Carers Scotland, Scottish Care, One Parent Families Scotland and the Scottish Women’s Budget Group, with support from the University of the West of Scotland; notes that the campaign is calling for the Scottish Government to add a dedicated National Outcome on care to their existing set; considers that care, and all those who provide it, are currently invisible within the 11 existing Outcomes through which the Scottish Government describes the kind of Scotland it aims to create; is concerned by the reported view of the coalition behind the campaign that progress to improve care in Scotland has been “too slow and too shallow”; acknowledges what it sees as the blueprint for a new National Outcome on Care, developed in conjunction with the University of the West of Scotland, which it understands says that insufficient consideration of carers, care workers, and those experiencing care in the present NPF, is indicative of a longstanding undervaluation of these groups; acknowledges the researchers’ reported proposed National Outcome Statement, “we fully value and invest in those experiencing care and all those providing it”, and agrees that it should be included in the next iteration of the NPF due in 2023.
