Response

Please find our response to your request below:

The public engagement exercise for Minimum Income Guarantee ran from 16 August – 16 September 2021. Responses can be found on the ideas.gov.scot website however there was no published analysis of responses. Scottish Government internal staff ran the exercise and there were no external resources used, therefore there were no external costs.

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance the Scottish Government does not have some of the information you have requested. The Scottish Government did not keep a record of the number of hours staff spent on this project, so we do not hold information about the project’s staffing/resource cost. As such, I hereby provide you with formal notice under section 17(1) of FOISA that the Scottish Government does not have the information you have requested.
