This is the second issue in our series of quarterly briefings outlining the social policy issues reported by citizens advice bureaux across Scotland in the previous three months. Using recent evidence, these briefings are an excellent way of spotting trends in social policy and tracing the impact of recent policy changes.
The briefing includes a section on the biggest social policy issue of the last three months seen by bureaux, and shows the main issues brought up by clients on benefits, employment, debt, consumer issues, housing, and utilities.
If you have any questions regarding the briefing, please contact the social policy team at social.policy@cas.org.uk.
