It also starts the statutory timetable of 12 months during which Scottish Ministers must complete the review and use it to inform a report which must then be published and laid before the Scottish Parliament. A key aim of the review is to provide robust evidence based research findings. It will focus on SMO’s funding and collate stakeholder views on its status and future development. This will inform ministerial decisions on strategic direction, including where enhancements to SMO’s functions, operating model (including improved ways of working), financial sustainability (including income generation), and strategic impact could provide greatest value and strengthen SMO’s role a as Scotland’s national centre for Gaelic language, education and culture.. The contract shall commence on 9th November 2026 and shall expire on 31st March 2027. The contract may be extended by two periods of one month, to a date falling no later than 31st May 2027.—
