Pre-budget Scrutiny 2023-24

Meeting date: 23 November 2022

Audrey Nicoll

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?

Pre-budget Scrutiny 2023-24

Meeting date: 23 November 2022

Audrey Nicoll

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.

Pre-budget Scrutiny 2023-24

Meeting date: 23 November 2022

Thank you. Is there any indication around timescales? I do not want to stray off budget, but that obviously correlates with budget, as you have just said.

Criminal Justice Committee
