Submission History: By Councillor Malcolm Cunning:- "Council expresses its sincerest condolences to the thousands of people affected by the tragic loss of life as a result of the coronavirus pandemic; and recognises the enormous stresses and pressures on everyone during this incredibly trying time. Council notes the phenomenal response from frontline staff across the Council family, the public sector and our third sector partners, who have kept the city going by delivering essential tasks and services. Council believes that the Coronavirus pandemic has revealed the true extent to which we all depend on these essential services and the staff that carry them out; that the regular 'Clap for Carers' and other frontline staff demonstrate the gratitude and respect for the those involved; and believes that gratitude should be matched by action. Council resolves to pay tribute to all those involved in the response to the public health emergency and associated lockdown; and to add its collective voice to the calls for a pay rise for frontline workers, that is fully funded by the Scottish Government; and instructs the Leader of the Council to engage within COSLA and write to the First Minister in these terms."
