RSA Review
An external review of RSA was commissioned in March 2001 to ensure that in the light of globalisation, the downturn in inward investment and the growth of the knowledge economy, the scheme continued to play its full part in our commitment to providing jobs for all and to tackling regional imbalances. It was also important to ensure synergy with the Smart, Successful, Scotland agenda, under whose strategic guidance, the Enterprise Networks now operate. The review was chaired by Gavin Masterton, then Treasurer and Managing Director of the Bank of Scotland and included representatives from industry, Scottish Enterprise and the Department.
