Watch the chamber session on SPTV · lands on the meetings recorded on 03 Feb 2016

To ask the Scottish Government what consultation it has undertaken in preparation for the devolution of employment services.

The answer

In developing the Scottish approach to employability support services, the consultation Creating a Fairer Scotland: Employability Support consulted been June and October 2015 to draw on as wide a range of perspectives, experience and expertise as possible on the future employability services which unemployed people in Scotland want, need and deserve.
Our aim was to listen to service users and providers, plus employers and other stakeholders, on how they would like the Scottish approach to employability to look in 2017 when these powers are devolved. We received 179 written responses to the formal consultation document, Creating a Fairer Scotland: Employability Support, a further 36 responses to our SurveyMonkey questionnaire. We also gained invaluable feedback from more than 70 face to face events and meetings with user and stakeholder groups across Scotland.
We will use the analysis of the consultation responses, published last week, to inform decisions on the shape of devolved employability services. I am keen that we continue to engage with stakeholders, building on the strong relations established during the consultation phase, as this work develops.
