Question

To ask the Scottish Government, in light of the 2025-26 Budget statement on 4 December 2024, how it plans to fund third sector organisations through the Children and Young People’s Early Intervention Fund in 2025-26.


Answer

The Scottish Government is committed to delivering vital public services and supporting our third sector but continues to face the most challenging financial situation since devolution.

The 2025-26 draft budget, which will be subject to the approval of the Parliament, included an allocation for the Children, Young People, Families Early Intervention and Adult Learning and Empowering Communities (CYPFEI & ALEC) and Children, Young People, Families and Adult Learners (CYPFAL) third sector funds.
