Part of Topical Question Time – in the Scottish Parliament at on 8 October 2024.
Thank you, Presiding Officer.
I do not believe that the minister had any idea of the problems until they were flagged up as a result of the investigation. Otherwise, the Scottish Government would have done proper workforce planning to ensure that that did not happen. Trying to solve the problem now is like bolting the door after the horse has bolted. Minister, do you think that you really are in charge of what is going on?
