The CRWIA will be published with all other impact assessments following the introduction of the legislation, and will therefore be in the public domain for those wishing to access it.

We have no intention of publishing a child friendly CRWIA given the minimal direct and indirect impact of the proposed legislation on children and young people. The CRWIA will be accessibility checked in the normal way for all Scottish Government publications to take steps to ensure those reading the CRWIA can understand its content and reasoning behind the neutral/ no impact assessment.

We will share information on the introduction of the Bill with crofting representative groups.
