Leading on from that, in addition to moving and adjusting figures, I am interested in opportunities for efficiency savings and new ways of working. Can you expand a little on what opportunities there are, within the constraints of a very difficult budget, for that to be very much part of individual portfolios’ thinking with regard to their budgets?

Our next item of business is the conclusion of our evidence taking on pre-budget scrutiny of the Scottish Government’s forthcoming budget for 2023-24. I refer members to papers 1 and 2.
I welcome to the meeting the Cabinet Secretary for Justice and Veterans, Keith Brown; Neil Rennick, the Scottish Government’s director of justice; and Donald McGillivray, the director of safer communities.
To get us under way, I invite the cabinet secretary to make a short opening statement, and we will then move to questions.
