Notes

This information has been taken directly from the "Scottish Executive" website.

The Scottish Executive is the devolved government for Scotland.

It is responsible for most of the issues of day-to-day concern to the people of Scotland, including health, education, justice, rural affairs, and transport.

It manages an annual budget of more than £27 billion in the financial year 2005-2006 which is due to rise to over £30 billion in 2007-2008.

The Executive was established in 1999, following the first elections to the Scottish Parliament. The current administration was formed after elections in May 2007.

The Executive is led by a First Minister who is nominated by the Parliament and in turn appoints the other Scottish Ministers who make up the Cabinet.

Executive civil servants are accountable to Scottish Ministers, who are themselves accountable to the Scottish Parliament.
