To ask the Scottish Executive, further to the answer to question S2W-24534 by Tom McCabe on 21 April 2006, whether it will publish comparative data on total managed expenditure in real terms for each year from 1996-97 to 2010-11, broken down by department.
Answer
The information is shown in thefollowing table. It should be noted that there will be slight differences from thedata provided in the response to question S2W-24534 mainly as a result of the ScottishGovernment restructuring last year and the rebasing of real terms numbers to 2007-08prices.

Notes:
1. This Table updates the informationpreviously provided in the comparative trend data which was published on the ScottishGovernment website in October 2004 (and updated in the response to question S2W-24534).While the data is mostly comparative over the period, and can in many cases be reconciledwith previously published information, it does not accurately reflect the accounts.This data should, therefore, only be used as a tool for identifying trends in expenditure.A more accurate reflection of expenditure trends over the last 10 years or so canbe found in Annex B of Scottish Budget: Spending Review 2007.
2. All numbers are on a cashand accruals basis (i.e. capital charges have been excluded).
3. NHS (Scotland) andScottish Teacher’s pension income and expenditure has been excluded from calculations
4. As CAP Market Support andEuropean Structural Funds budgets are offset in DEL, from 2006-07 onwards, by fundingfrom Europe, for comparative purposes the expenditure has been omitted from thistable for all years.
5. Other one-off expenditurehas also been excluded.
6. Transfers between portfolioshave where possible been made for all years on the basis of the 2007-08 positionfor comparability.
7. Figures at 2007-08 pricesusing GDP deflators as at 20 December 2007.

To ask the Scottish Executive whether it intends to review the existing national planning guidance on renewable energy developments.
Answer
The Scottish Government believesthat Scottish Planning Policy (SPP) 6 Renewable Energy provides a sound nationalpolicy context for addressing onshore wind development and there are no plans toreview it.
Since the publication of SPP6and to facilitate its implementation, ministers have confirmed that additional supportand guidance will be made available to planning authorities. A team of consultantswere appointed by the Scottish Government at the beginning of 2008 for a periodto 12 months to provide expert advice and support on the preparation of supplementaryplanning guidance for wind farms, including spatial frameworks. To further assistthe authorities, national guidance on the preparation of the authorities’ supplementaryplanning guidance will be issued in the near future.

To ask the Scottish Executive what impact it considers the number and scale of applications for onshore wind farms in Argyll and Bute would have on the landscape, quality of life and tourism in the area if implemented.
Answer
Each application fora wind farm is determined on its own merits. Scottish Planning Policy 6 RenewableEnergy provides that consideration should include a wide range of factors includingimpacts on landscape, communities and tourism, and cumulative impacts of other proposalswhich have been built, given permission or are the subject of a valid application.

To ask the Scottish Executive whether it is satisfied with the number and scale of applications for onshore wind farms in Argyll and Bute.
Answer
There are no localtargets for onshore wind farm developments. Scottish Planning Policy (SPP) 6, RenewableEnergy confirms that the target for the percentage of Scotland’s electricity tobe generated from renewable sources should not be regarded as a cap.
Development plan policiesfor wind farms should be based on the principle that wind farms should be accommodatedwhere the technology can operate efficiently and environmental and cumulative impactscan be addressed satisfactorily.

To ask the Scottish Executive how it intends to reduce the number of speculative planning applications for onshore wind farms.
Answer
Under planning legislationthere are no powers to prevent planning applications being made. However, the preparationof up-to-date policies by planning authorities which reflect Scottish Planning Policy6 Renewable Energy should provide greater certainty for developers and local communities.

To ask the Scottish Executive whether it supports national or local locational guidance for siting onshore wind farm developments.
Answer
The Scottish Government believes that Scottish Planning Policy (SPP6) Renewable Energy provides a sound national policy context for addressing onshore wind development. We want to see the SPP''s provisions taken forward urgently, with local authorities engaging with communities and other parties in the preparation of locational strategies in the form of supplementary planning guidance. These local frameworks should provide greater certainty for developers and local communities and speed up the decision process. We see this approach as striking the right balance between national and local responsibilities.

To ask the Scottish Executive when and to whom the Joint Future Thinking Taskforce on Universities will report.
Answer
The intention is for the finalmeeting of the taskforce to take place in June. The taskforce will report as soonas is feasible after that meeting. I expect the outcomes to be reported to the ScottishGovernment’s Cabinet, amongst others and I would also expect our work to be publishedin due course. In addition, I plan to keep members of the further and highereducation roundtable updated with its progress.

To ask the Scottish Executive whether the Joint Future Thinking Taskforce on Universities will consider the use of student contributions towards university funding.
Answer
The government is firmly committed to access to higher education being based on the ability to learn rather than the ability to pay. The issue of student contributions is excluded from the scope of the taskforce.

To ask the Scottish Executive why student representatives are not part of the membership of the Joint Future Thinking Taskforce on Universities.
Answer
A wide ranging review which mighttake years to produce results is not appropriate in this case. Membership of thetaskforce has deliberately been restricted to the government, university principalsand the chair of the Scottish Funding Council to ensure a short, sharp exercisethat produces tangible outputs.
The government does not see thetaskforce’s identification of challenges and next steps as being the end of theprocess. There will be an opportunity for wider engagement with a range of stakeholdersbeyond this. In particular, NUS and CHESS have been specifically asked to providean input to the next meeting in February. I also intend to discuss the student perspectiveat an event in the spring.

To ask the Scottish Executive, further to Scottish Budget: Spending Review 2007, whether it will publish an update to The Scottish Executive's Expenditure: Comparative Trends: 1996-97 - 2005-06 published in 2004, to provide comparable spending data in real terms, broken down by department to level 2 figures.
Answer
The Scottish Government hasno plans to update the comparative trends data. The comparative trend datamerely provided an indication of trends in expenditure over an arbitrary 10year period and was flawed due to the complication of the introduction ofResource Accounting and Budgeting. However, the following table, based on AnnexB of the Scottish Budget Spending Review 2007, provides comparative expenditurefor year 2002-03 to 2010-11 in real terms which is broken down by portfolio tolevel 2.
