Public procurement strategy: child rights and wellbeing impact assessment - screening sheet

2. What aspects of the policy/measure will affect children and young people up to the age of 18?

The Articles of the UNCRC and the child wellbeing indicators under the Children and Young People (Scotland) Act 2014 apply to all children and young people up to the age of 18, including non-citizen and undocumented children and young people.

There are no direct impacts on children and young people. However the Public Procurement strategy for Scotland aims to make improvements for the people of Scotland. As such, for Children and Young people, there will be policies and initiatives that are supported or developed that have positive indirect impacts. Specific direct impacts would be considered within the policies and initiatives that underpin the Public Procurement Strategy for Scotland.
