Hello there

I am a government statistician working for Social Security Scotland (and, in turn, Scottish Government.)

My main responsibility is to manage the production and dissemination of the quarterly Scottish Child Payment Official Statistics publications. Links to the definition of (types of) 'official statistics' and 'management information' are provided at the end of this profile.

For any queries in related to official statistics (and management information) produced by Social Security Scotland, please get in touch with Social Security Scotland's statistics mailbox, and we will get back to you as soon as possible. Any and all queries will not be discussed and monitored here.

All producers of official statistics including Social Security Scotland are expected to commit to The Code of Practices for Statistics.

    #   - If you want a different domain, such as employment, health, or crime to name a few example, then you should amend the `simdDomain` argument for the opendatascot::ods_dataset function.
