Cash-First: Towards ending the need for food banks in Scotland Islands Communities Impact Assessment

The Island Communities Impact Assessment considers the impact of the Scottish Government’s Cash-First Plan and associated actions to improve the response to financial crisis and reduce the need for emergency food parcels


Part 5 - Assessment of whether a full Islands Communities Impact Assessment is required

While there are factors that are already present and may contribute to different experiences of food insecurity in island communities from mainland, the Plan and associated actions are not expected to have a significantly different impact in these communities. A full Islands Community Impact Assessment is therefore not required.
