Inquiry into Preventative Spending

The Scottish Parliament’s Finance Committee is conducting an inquiry to ‘consider and report on how public spending can best be focused over the longer term on trying to prevent, rather than deal with, negative social outcomes. The Committee is particularly interested in specific, practical evidence from the UK and abroad of how preventative spending has been effective.’
