Select Committee Inquiry
11 Nov 2025
The future of Scotland’s high streets
Scottish Affairs Committee (Select)
Not accepting submissions

In Scotland, as in other parts of the UK, concerns have been raised about how high streets and town centres are changing. Scotland’s high streets face multiple challenges, and many have been described as being in ‘decline’. However, possible new models for resilient and thriving high streets are emerging, while there continues to be interest in community-led regeneration. This inquiry will engage with local communities and other stakeholders to explore what a positive vision for the future of Scottish high streets and town centres might look like, and to examine what role government might play in making this vision a reality.

Read the call for evidence for more details about the inquiry.

14 Nov 2025
Connectivity in Scotland: Digital connectivity
Scottish Affairs Committee (Select)
Not accepting submissions

Reliable digital infrastructure is essential for enabling economic growth, public service delivery and social inclusion—especially in Scotland’s rural and island communities. These areas often face unique challenges due to geographic isolation and low population density, which can make the rollout of broadband and mobile networks more complex and costly. This inquiry will explore how digital connectivity can be improved across Scotland, and whether current UK and Scottish Government initiatives are delivering for the communities that need them most.

Read the call for evidence for more details about the inquiry.

This is one of two inquiries looking into connectivity in Scotland. We have also launched an inquiry into fixed transport links. For more information, visit - Connectivity in Scotland: Fixed links - Committees - UK Parliament
