Requests and feedback

Participation requests are one part of the Community Empowerment Act 2015 and allow community bodies to ask a public authority, like Scottish Enterprise, to be involved in decisions and put forward their ideas for how services could be changed to improve outcomes for their community.

This does not replace other ways of getting involved, such as our Customer Panel. You can register your interest in joining our customer panel by filling in an enquiry form.

How to make a participation request
You can only make a request as part of an eligible community body – you can download a guide to Participation requests from the Scottish Government.

To make a request, complete the form on pages 24-25 of the guidance and email it to us at enquiries@scotent.co.uk
If you need any help in completing your request, please get in touch.

We're committed to delivering a first-class service to all of our customers while making the biggest impact on the Scottish economy and providing the best value for the public purse.

We ensure that our products and services are open to all regardless of age, disability, gender reassignment, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex and sexual orientation.

If for whatever reason you're not satisfied we want to hear from you.
