Responding to the publication of Audit Scotland's latest report on tackling digital exclusion, David McNeil, SCVO Strategic Director of Development, said:
“This report shows that while government aims to save money through developing digital services, the burden of support often falls to local community organisations and charities, without additional resource or recognition.
"If the Scottish Government is serious about its mission to tackle poverty, these recommendations should focus minds on practical action which can be taken to tackle digital exclusion as both a consequence of poverty and a major contributor to people being unable to escape its trap.”
