Ivan McKee raises a very good point. The supply chain development programme uses public sector procurement to improve the capacity and capability of Scottish manufacturing supply chains in the country. The programme is currently linking the opportunities that arise from our energy transition with the innovation and enterprise support that is provided by enterprise agencies such as the National Manufacturing Institute Scotland and others. At the moment, the programme is prioritising the opportunities in low-carbon heat networks and the Scottish Government’s affordable housing programme, so it is playing an important role in the transition.
