State Aid notification

The State Aid Unit

The State Aid Unit, part of the Enterprise, Energy and Tourism Directorate of the Scottish Government, aims to assist those involved in approving or granting public funding within State aid rules. They provide support and advice to:

  • answer questions regarding State Aid;
  • advise on the most appropriate scheme for the aid to be granted;
  • work with you to develop new schemes for notification to the European Commission; and
  • liaise with Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform (BERR) State Aid Branch and the UK Permanent Representation (UKRep) at the European Commission on State Aid issues in Scotland
