ScotRail is also making progress in ensuring passengers feels safe with the expansion of its travel safe team into the east of the country, bringing the team up to 37 members.Capacity on the West Highland Line has recently been increased in a boost for the tourism economy, and ScotRail is demonstrating innovation by trialling the use of vegetable oil as an alternative to diesel fuel.Next week ScotRail will publish a report that sets out the value it brings to the economy, and I would encourage everyone with an interest in Scotland’s railway to read this once available.We have achieved much to make Scotland’s railway successful in the last 3 years but there is much more we wish to do to give the people of Scotland the rail service they need and deserve.

Including Assumed Council Tax in the settlement calculations is therefore a critical element of the needs-based distribution by ensuring that the impact of those structural differences is partially redistributed.Excluding Assumed Council Tax from the 85% floor would remove this partial redistribution and would therefore be incompatible with the concept of a needs-based distribution methodology.The following table provides a hypothetical static analysis of the impact of excluding both Assumed Council Tax and the 15 per cent upper limit from the calculation, in each of the last five settlements in isolation. 85% Floor in the actual settlementchange if we didn’t use ACT or the 15% cap2021-22Edinburgh received £8mAberdeen City would have received £10m, Edinburgh would have received an additional £54m 2022-23Edinburgh received £10mAberdeen City would have received £11m, Edinburgh would have received an additional £53m 2023-24noneEdinburgh would have received £50m 2024-25noneEdinburgh would have received £38m 2025-26noneEdinburgh would have received £45m S6W...

PACE partners SDS and Scottish Enterprise had a joint introductory meeting with Petroineos on 3 October 2024 to outline the support available to employees impacted by the planned closure of refining operations.We believe that the wider Grangemouth site retains the potential to be utilised as part of Scotland’s low-carbon transition, and it has been identified as a potential site for future low carbon technologies which will not only drive Scotland’s economy, but contribute to our transition to net zero.This is why the Scottish and UK Governments have confirmed a £100m package for Falkirk and Grangemouth, including our £40 million contribution to the Growth Deal and £10 million for community projects in Grangemouth and an additional £10m announced by UK Government after Petroineos’ decision to close the refinery site, as well as the £1.5m Project Willow study (jointly funded by the Scottish and UK Governments) which aims to look at options for developing new long term industry at the refinery site.My officials will continue to work in partnership with the Forth Green Freeport team, and with UK Government counterparts in order to ensure the successful delivery of the Green Freeport, to the benefit of the communities in the region, and to the wider economic success of Scotland.
