To ask the Scottish Executive why milestone 2 of the Social Justice Annual Report Scotland 2001 - A Scotland where everyone matters, reducing the proportion of our children living in low income households, is not an objective, target or indicator in the social justice section of its 2003-06 spending proposals.
Answer
Social justice is delivered both through the social justice portfolio and through the activities of other portfolios. The aims, objectives and targets in the social justice chapter of Building a Better Scotland are those that the social justice budget will deliver. The social justice milestones remain in place and we shall report again on progress in this year's Social Justice Annual Report.
