The Government’s intention to take a more direct role in determining Great British Energy’s investment...
Recommendation
The Government’s intention to take a more direct role in determining Great British Energy’s investment in Scotland, rather than allocating funding through existing Scottish Government programmes and public bodies, presents a potential risk of duplication and inefficiency. In its response to this report, the Government should set out how it intends to work with the Scottish Government to mitigate this risk, and ensure taxpayers’ money is spent in the most efficient way. (Recommendation, Paragraph 23)
