Question

To ask the Scottish Government how the Cabinet Secretary for Economy, Tourism and Transport and Minister for Europe, External Affairs and Energy will work together to deliver consistent green industrial and energy strategies.


Answer

The First Minister has appointed a leaner Cabinet and ministerial team to enable greater co-ordination and effectiveness with a clear focus on long-term outcomes, underpinned by collaboration across Government.

That approach will facilitate joint working between the myself and the Minister for Europe, External Affairs and Energy to unlock the economic opportunities that energy brings, accelerate delivery and ensure the people of Scotland benefit.
