Capital transformation scheme savings: FOI release

Information request and response under the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002.


Information requested

Confirmation of how much of the ‘savings’ from previous budgets will be delivered through the new capital transformation scheme in 2026-27.

Response

We cannot confirm specifically how much will be delivered through the new scheme as it has yet to be developed.

A footnote under table 10.02 of the recently published 2025-26 Scottish Budget confirms that the balance of savings will be returned as capital in 2026 -27. The footnote reads: “Includes £20m RALRI savings utilised in previous Scottish Budgets, the remainder of these savings will be returned as capital funding in 2026-27.”
