What does Scotland’s government spend?
Spending on services that are largely devolved came to to £41.6bn in 2019-2020, according to the Institute for Fiscal Studies. This includes the vast majority of Scottish public spending on health, education, social care, transport, public order and safety, environmental and rural affairs, and housing. The IFS calculates that this equates to £7,612 per person in Scotland, which is an astonishing 27% higher than the £5,971 per person spent on those areas in England, and 13% higher than the £6,748 spent in Wales (where the population is older, poorer and sicker than in Scotland). Since 2007, the party spending that money has been the Scottish National Party, either as a minority government or, from 2011 to 2016, with an overall majority at Holyrood.
