| Description | The Group was set up at the request of Scottish Ministers in June 2006 to look at attitudes towards LGBT people in Scotland. Although the work has been facilitated by the Scottish Government, the group is independent of Government and has made its own recommendations. In due course Scottish Ministers will respond to the recommendations made. |

" LGBT people are estimated to make up around 5% of the population of Scotland, around 250,000 people across all parts of society. We are young and old, we are parents, we are single, in relationships, married or in civil partnerships, we are disabled people, we are school and college students, we are workers, we are religious and non-religious, we are of all ethnicities. Like everyone else, we contribute to Scotland's wealth, culture, society and future."
