Question
To ask the Scottish Government when it will publish the report of the Expert Working Group on Welfare.
Answer
I’m pleased to advise that the report of the Expert Working Group on Welfare will be published today. It can be accessed at:
http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Topics/People/welfarereform/EXPERTWORKINGGROUPONWELFARE.
I am also publishing the Scottish Government’s initial response to the group’s report; it can be viewed alongside it.
A copy of the group’s report and the Scottish Government’s initial response has been placed in SPICe (BIB numbers 55013 and 55014).
