CONGRATULATIONS to The Herald and the Ferret for the important and informative series on Who Runs Scotland (The Herald, July 12, 13 & 14). These issues on the Scottish economy and polity have been of concern to some academic and campaign groups but are seldom discussed and critically examined in the mainstream media, even less so in mainstream politics. Thank you for asking the serious questions about where power lies and who are making or influencing the decisions affecting many lives. And of course who are profiting. There has been much justifiable anger about the contrast between how Norway managed her oil resources and how Scotland s resources were managed by the UK Government. Norway now has a massive sovereign wealth fund for its future security. But Scotland s renewable resources and their great future potential are being managed in a similar way to Scotland s oil. The Holyrood Government has shown little ambition and initiative in controlling these resources for Scotland
