Question
To ask the Scottish Government whether any new staff will be recruited in 2023 to support the delivery of climate change initiatives, and, if so, at what grades, and in what numbers.
Answer
Delivery of this Government’s climate change initiatives, including our updated Climate Change Plan, Climate Change Adaptation Programme and emerging Just Transition Plans, is integrated into the work of teams right across the Scottish Government, our agencies and public bodies.
Workforce planning for the year is ongoing and we are not in a position to provide a definitive forecast for 2023.
