Recommendation · verbatim
The Committee welcomes the continued Scottish Government funding for independent advocacy services to help people most in need to navigate the system. However, we note the comments of stakeholders which suggest that such services are at risk when provided locally due to budget cuts and invite the Scottish Government to respond to these concerns.
