Greens push SNP on climate change polices

THE Scottish Greens have warned SNP ministers that they were not “where they need to be” on the environment after the two parties made a power-sharing agreement last week.

Last Friday, the two parties agreed on proposals which could see the Greens provide a confidence-and-supply arrangement to the SNP administration at Holyrood. 

To be finalised the deal needs to be approved by groups on both sides, with the first hurdle – the SNP’s national executive committee – passed on Saturday morning.
