Published responses

Only answers from respondents who gave permission are published. However, all responses are included in the analysis of this consultation.

Given the nature of the issues addressed in this guidance, strong views are expressed by some respondents and examples of situations are occasionally provided, which some readers might find upsetting.

Some responses include web links. The Scottish Government has not reviewed, and cannot review, all of the material in links to websites not forming part of www.gov.scot and is not responsible for the content of such websites. By including such links in published responses, the Scottish Government does not endorse the content of such websites, or represent their content as accurate.
