Question
To ask the Scottish Government what progress is being made towards meeting the recommendations in the 2011 report, Inspiring Change.
Answer
I have asked Teresa Medhurst, Chief Executive of the Scottish Prison Service (SPS), to respond. Her response is as follows:
The six recommendations of the 2011 report, ‘Inspiring change’ were embedded in the SPS transformational review ‘Unlocking Potential – Transforming Lives’ document published during 2013 and the Learning & Skills Strategy which was renewed in 2016.
SPS continue to monitor performance against agreed criterion with their Learning Provider Fife College.
