The question
To ask the Scottish Executive whether, if Marine Scotland is to be part of the Scottish Government, whether its advice to ministers will be published and how it will operate transparently.
The answer
We have yet to decide on the appropriate status for Marine Scotland and its detailed governance arrangements. It will be important for it to be seen to operate openly and transparently although also to ensure it can do so efficiently and effectively including, for example, through uninhibited exchanges of views and advice.
