Annual Reports
ScotGov: The 2009 Scottish Social Attitudes Survey (SSAS) reveals that people trust the Scottish Government to act in Scotland's best interests rather than the UK government by a factor of more than two-to-one. The survey shows 61% of people trusting ScotGov to act in the country's interests, compared to 25% for the UK government.
The SSAS was launched by the Scottish Centre for Social Research in 1999 following devolution. The Office of the Chief Researcher has funded a core module of questions on attitudes to government in Scotland since 2004. There was no survey in 2008.
