Inquiry Into Financial Considerations When Leaving an Abusive Relationship - Funding arrangements
The Committee reported on third sector funding principles as part of its pre-budget scrutiny for 2025-26, where it drew on an inquiry into rural poverty undertaken by the Scottish Parliament's Cross-Party Group on Poverty, which found that—
...funders do not necessarily recognise the higher costs associated with delivering services – such as transport and energy costs - into the awards they make to rural projects.Pre-Budget Scrutiny 2025-26: Third sector funding principles
Relatedly, the Committee concluded as part of its pre-budget scrutiny that—
...short-term funding cycles not only create financial instability but also divert significant amounts of time and resources away from the delivery of services.Pre-Budget Scrutiny 2025-26: Third sector funding principles
The ability to use funding flexibly was also discussed by Pedersen et al, who explained that in remote and rural places, being able to provide communication devices such as laptops or mobile phones is essential to alleviating the isolation felt by some victim/survivors.Written submission from Robert Gordon University
They also mentioned food bank vouchers, stating that in Scotland these usually indicate the service that provided them, and that in smaller communities, victim/survivors may feel uncomfortable using vouchers made available by services for people experiencing domestic abuse.

Criminal Justice Modernisation and Abusive Domestic Behaviour Reviews (Scotland) Bill - Fixed penalties
The Bill's Policy Memorandum (para 57) argues that:
Making the increased maximum level of fiscal fine of £500 permanently available to prosecutors as a non-court disposal allows prosecutors to continue to deal with less serious offending appropriately, freeing up capacity in the criminal courts system for more serious cases.
In addition, it states that:
the pre-pandemic scale had not been changed since it was introduced in 2008, and its maximum of £300 would now be the equivalent of almost £430 if inflation is taken into account
fiscal fines in excess of the pre-pandemic maximum of £300 made up roughly 2% of those issued between 7 April 2020 and 25 July 2024.
