The Scottish Government (Scottish Gaelic: Riaghaltas na h-Alba, pronounced [ˈrˠiə.əl̪ˠt̪əs nə ˈhal̪ˠapə]) is the executive arm of the devolved government of Scotland. [2] It was formed in 1999 as the Scottish Executive following the 1997 referendum on Scottish devolution. [3]
The Government may also be questioned by the other three sovereignty organs: the president of the republic, the Assembly of the Republic and the courts.
