Impact Evaluation of the Community Right to Buy - Research Finding

Monitoring the CRtB in the future

Recommendations for monitoring the CRtB in the future include:

1) In order to measure scale of participation, it is recommended that the Scottish Government continues to collect and collate the existing administrative data from communities on an ongoing basis.

2) Data on the reasons for exiting the process at each stage should be collected from communities that have exited at particular stages to identify reasons why they have not progressed any further.

3) To help provide evidence of long term outcomes being achieved, it is recommended that the Scottish Government gathers further feedback from those that have made purchases on a periodic and ongoing basis.
