KICKSTART - New figures show that of the 250,000 jobs the Chancellor promised would be created by the Kickstart scheme across the UK, only 1.5% have been started in Scotland since it launched ten months ago.
Based on population share, Scotland should have around 20,500 of the 250,000 Kickstart jobs promised by the UK government – but only 3,830 have been started and 10,740 made available to Scotland.
