The Environment Strategy for Scotland: Consumer Duty Impact Assessment (CDIA)

Stage 4 – Decision:

11. Has SG met the Consumer Duty for this decision?

Yes

12. If yes to above, explain how?

In the process of carrying out this impact assessment, we have considered the impact of the Environment Strategy for potential impacts on consumers in Scotland.

This was achieved by significant engagement with stakeholders throughout the development of the Environment Strategy and during the consultation period. We have therefore considered the needs of consumers as part of this Environment Strategy and the impact the Environment Strategy is likely to have on consumers and to the desirability of reducing harm to consumers.
