SCC Letter to the Cabinet Secretary
18 December 2025 • Sarah Medcraf
SCOTTISH CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE HAS SENT THE ATTACHED LETTER TO THE CABINET SECRETARY FOR FINANCE, OUTLINING SCC'S THREE MAIN ASKS FOR THE SCOTTISH BUDGET ON 13 JANUARY 2026.
These asks were developed through engagement with members first and foremost, as well as consultation with external stakeholders, and insights gleaned from QEI data.
In particular, our ask on NDR has been strengthened in just the last 24 hours, since several members have been in touch to express their deep concerns about assessors' rateable values. More on that here: ScotGov urged to act as average rateable values rise 23% - DRAM Scotland
