Scottish Government

Our collective approach to making Scotland a safer and stronger place for people and for the communities they live in is set out in the Strategy for Justice.  Improving justice, upholding the rule of law and protecting society are essential to support a flourishing Scottish economy and to ensure people lead productive lives in safe and secure communities. The Scottish Government is working in partnership with agencies and organisations to make the justice system in Scotland fit for the 21^st century.
