To ask the Scottish Executive how many civil service jobs have been relocated from Edinburgh to each local authority area in each year since 1999.

The Scottish Government relocation and asset management policy is aimed at ensuring the best use of the existing government estate, providing the best value for money for the Scottish Government as a whole, and maintaining or improving operational effectiveness. This approach means that relocation is an option that will be pursued following a rigorous and transparent process that shows there are efficiencies for Scotland and that the move provides best possible value for money. Opportunities for relocation continue to be assessed.
