New skills body for Scotland
The Scottish Government has announced the first details of Scotland's new skills body, which will be created by merging Careers Scotland, Learndirect Scotland and the majority of the skills and training functions of the enterprise networks.  An interim board has been established with Billy Allan, current chairman of the University for Industry, as interim chairman and Donald Henderson, formerly head of Teachers Division within the Scottish Government's Schools Directorate, as interim chief executive to manage the transition programme.

The details were confirmed by the Cabinet Secretary for Education and Lifelong Learning, Fiona Hyslop MSP, at the Scottish Parliament's Economy, Energy and Tourism Committee.  For more details see:  www.scotland.gov.uk/News/Releases/2007/11/07132654
