Shown above & below on this page are 3 useful links. There are 2 downloads called 'Essentials' on this website (they are in pdf format) but there may be later updated versions on the Scottish Website in the future.
(I initially put a link to the whole 3 links but this was proving to be too problematic to keep the link working hence the reason for putting them on to our own website).
You can get to the relevant page of the Scottish Website using the link called "Scottish Publications" above & below on the left hand side of this webpage. There is also a short synopsis of these files immediately below here.
