Response

I enclose a copy of the information you have requested.

Section 1(4) of FOISA states that the information to be given by an authority is that held by it at the time the request is received. Therefore the information enclosed dates up to and including 4 December 2017.

Some of the information you requested was in scope for an earlier FoI request you submitted – FoI/17/02872. This information was included in the response to that request and so is not included in the response to this request.

This includes the report on Phase 2 of the Enterprise and Skills Review which laid out proposals for the Strategic Board, plus a series of associated feeder reports and the Scottish Government's response to Professor Lorne Crerar's Proposals on Governance. This is available at /policies/economic-growth/enterprise-and-skills-review/

Information including the minutes of all meetings and papers presented at the Implementation Board which met over the summer of 2017 is available at /groups/enterprise-and-skills-review-implementation-board/
