Share your views in enterprise and skills review

Views are being sought as part of a review of enterprise and skills support in Scotland.

Economy Secretary Keith Brown has issued a call for evidence asking businesses, students and others who use enterprise and skills services for their views on the support on offer.

The end-to-end review aims to ensure the Scottish Government and all public agencies are delivering the joined-up support that young people, universities, colleges and businesses need 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."

You can submit evidence to the review on the Scottish Government's Consultation website until 15 August 2016.
