Spring Conference 2008

Welcome to our spring conference microsite

The SNP gather in Edinburgh later this month as we approach our first anniversary in office, and look forward to even greater achievements in the coming years.

Whether it is a freeze on council tax, ending prescription charges, abolition of bridge tolls, eradication of the graduate endowment, scrapping business rates for small business, extra police on our streets, extra teachers in our classrooms, or saving Accident and Emergency services, it is the SNP government who are showing the way ahead for Scotland, and proving that real change can be delivered.

And at local government level, last year’s elections delivered a fundamental wind of change throughout the corridors of power in council chambers. With more councillors than any other party, the SNP is now represented in every mainland authority, and either leads or shares power in twelve local authority areas.

Our two-day gathering, on 19 and 20 April, will feature debates, motions and speeches. It will be an exciting opportunity to discuss the next steps towards our nation’s Independence, and for us to hear from our Cabinet Secretaries, as well as the Leader and Depute Leader, about the agenda that is being driven forward by the SNP.
