Scottish Conservative leader Russell Findlay has announced plans to reduce the number of quangos and cut public sector bureaucracy if his party wins the next Holyrood election. The proposals aim to streamline government and save taxpayers' money.
Findlay criticised the current administration for what he described as an 'explosion' in the number of public bodies, arguing that many are unnecessary and duplicate work. He pledged to scrap or merge quangos that do not provide value for money.
The Scottish Conservatives also promised to reduce the size of the civil service and cut red tape to make it easier for businesses to operate. Findlay said the party would conduct a review of all public sector bodies to identify savings.
The announcement comes as part of the party's broader economic strategy, which includes tax cuts and support for small businesses. Findlay said the plans would help boost economic growth and create jobs.
