The question
To ask the Scottish Executive how much has been spent on overseas travel by officials not accompanied by ministers since May 2011, broken down by (a) date and (b) destination.
The answer
Information relating to overseas travel by officials is not held in the form requested.
Scottish Government officials undertake overseas travel to ensure we effectively represent the people of Scotland and to ensure Scotland’s voice is heard on important issues. Before arranging travel officials must ensure that their journey is necessary and, if it is, they must use the most cost-effective means of travel.
