The Scottish Government has published it’s Fiscal Sustainability Delivery Plan. The aim of the document is to provide some detail on how the government intends to address pressures on their resource (ie day-to-day spending) budget over the next five years.
The plan includes reducing the size of the public sector workforce, through a combination of efficiencies and automation.
The Fiscal Sustainability Delivery plan is linked to the Medium-Term Financial Strategy and the Public Sector Reform Strategy.
