To ask the Scottish Executive what provisions are outlined in the draft single outcome agreement with Highland Council in relation to services for women who are victims of domestic violence.
Answer
We are currently in the process of agreeing single outcome agreements (SOAs) for 2008-09 with all 32 councils. We aim to complete this process by 30 June 2008 and, subject to agreement with councils, all finalised agreements will be made publicly available shortly thereafter. It would not be appropriate at this stage of the process to comment on specific areas of focus within individual agreements, but we expect SOAs to reflect the priorities and agreed outcomes for each council and to include the relevant supporting indicators and targets.

To ask the Scottish Executive whether the draft single outcome agreement with Shetland Islands Council specifies how and when the council will offer kinship care allowances to a wider range of recipients and, if so, what the details are in the agreement.
Answer
Providing a weekly allowance for approved kinship carers of looked after children is one of the commitments contained in the concordat signed with COSLA in November 2007. Progress against each of the commitments in the concordat will be reported annually by COSLA at the end of each financial year, separately from the single outcome agreement process.
It is up to local authorities to determine how to prioritise and allocate funds to meet their commitments locally.
