Cost of employing Partner Agencies: FOI release
Information request and response under the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002.
Information requested
What was the cost of employing Partner Agencies for Financial Year 2024/2025?
Response
I enclose a copy of some of the information you requested because the full accounts position for 2024/25 has yet to be finalised.
By referring to Partner Agencies I am interpreting that you mean Executive Agencies as categorised on the Scottish Government Website https://www.gov.scot/publications/public-bodies-in-scotland-guide/
Executive Agencies are not employed by Scottish Government. Instead, they form an integral part of the Scottish Government structure to deliver public services to the people of Scotland. In the attached document I have provided the draft unaudited cash funding figures allocated to the Executive Agencies which are listed on The National Public Bodies Directory (https://www.gov.scot/publications/nationalpublic-bodies-directory/pages/executive-agencies/) for the year 2024/25.
