In December 2020, Scottish Government published its Fairer Scotland Action Plan: Progress Report 2020. The report describes Scottish Government’s achievements and ongoing work according to its 2016 Fairer Scotland Action Plan.

It also provides an update on the actions taken following two reports produced by the Independent Advisor on Poverty and Inequality in 2016 and 2017.

The report analyses progress in the following areas:

• Employment, including youth employment
• Education and childcare
• Housing
• Social security and benefit up-take
• Social policy
• Equality
• Health, including mental health
