- Businesses, students and others who use enterprise and skills services are
being asked for their views about the support on offer.
Economy
Secretary Keith Brown has issued a call for evidence as part of the end-to-end
review he is leading of enterprise and skills support in Scotland.
The review
aims to ensure the Scottish Government and all of its public agencies are
delivering joined-up support to young people, universities, colleges and businesses
in order to increase sustainable economic growth.
Mr Brown
said:
“Scotland
is a wealthy and productive country with a strong economy, and I want to ensure
we are able to deal with the economic challenges we face – including the
volatility generated by the EU referendum.
“Our
enterprise and skills agencies – Scottish Enterprise, Highlands and Islands
Enterprise, Skills Development Scotland and the Scottish Funding Council – have
a key role to play in delivering the Scottish Government’s economic strategy,
supporting economic development and enabling every individual to achieve their
potential.
“This
review will establish how these agencies should work together to provide the
right support to the right people at the right time. That is why it is so important
that we hear about the experiences of business, learners and other users of
these services, and I urge everyone with an interest to submit their views
before 15 August.”
Evidence
can be submitted to the review until 15 August 2016 via https://consult.scotland.gov.uk/enterprise-and-skills/call-for-evidence
