1. Introduction
1.1 The purpose of this consultation paper is to set out the Scottish Government's thinking on the role of the Scottish Futures Trust ( SFT) initiative in infrastructure investment in Scotland, and to invite views on the proposals. To this end it:
- clarifies what the SFT concept entails;
- sets out the Scottish context against which the use of such an investment vehicle should be considered;
- describes the challenge which SFT will seek to address;
- sets out the Government's strategy; and
- proposes the development of a new investment vehicle
1.2 The paper concludes by setting out questions on which the Government would welcome your views. The answers to these questions, together with general comments on the proposals submitted by respondents, will be taken into account in finalising how the Scottish Government intends to proceed.
