The bishops of Scotland have called for “human dignity and the common good” to be prioritised as the Scottish Government prepares to publish its 2026-2027 Programme for Government. The Programme, which sets out the actions the Government will take both in the coming year and after, will include legislative proposals.
Bishop John Keenan of Paisley, president of the Bishops’ Conference of Scotland, said that public policy “should be judged by how it protects the weakest, supports families, strengthens communities and enables every person to flourish”.
