Delivering for Scotland conference

28/02/2002

The Executive will work in partnership with people working at the frontline to improve the delivery of public services, Finance and Public Services Minister Andy Kerr said today.

Speaking ahead of the Delivering for Scotland conference at the SECC in Glasgow tomorrow, the Minister continued:


"The improved delivery of top-quality public services is our key priority. Our goal is to build on the good work being done by those working at the frontline to deliver public services Scotland can be proud of.


"Our priorities are the priorities of the people of Scotland. Like us, people care deeply about the delivery of public services and that is why it is central to all that we do in the Executive.

"We will be at the conference to listen. It provides the Executive with an excellent opportunity to hear the views of people who play a key role in the delivery of our services."

The Solicitor General for Scotland, Elish Angiolini QC, said:

"Like every other aspect of the Executive's services, the prosecution service in Scotland must strive to review and evaluate what it does and how it does it to secure constant improvements.

"The Lord Advocate and I do recognise and value the general quality and professionalism of the work being carried out and will provide our support while at the same time seeking to deliver continuing improvements for a service that meets the needs of society."
