To ask the Scottish Government when a report on Year 1 of the National Transition Training Fund will be published.

The National Transition Training Fund (NTTF) was established in October 2020 as a key intervention to mitigate the projected rise in unemployment resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic and was positioned to help fill a gap in how we supported individuals, aged 25+, who had lost their job or whose jobs were at risk as a result of the pandemic.

In response to recent Parliamentary Questions and in the NTTF / Young Person’s Guarantee Debate on 9 November 2021 we committed to publishing a report summarising the outcomes of Year 1. The report on Year 1 of NTTF has been published on the Scottish Government Website at http://www.gov.scot/ISBN/978-1-80201-962-9 .
