## Notice

The Scottish Government wishes to commission the Scottish Crime and Justice Survey (SCJS) for 2023-26. The SCJS is a large-scale social survey which gives Scottish residents an opportunity to tell us about their experiences and perceptions of crime, policing and the justice system. The SCJS in its current form was established in 2008/09, although a crime survey has run in Scotland since 1982. The SCJS is a key source of evidence on crime victimisation in Scotland, as well as issues relating to policing and the criminal justice system. As such, it is used extensively by the Scottish Government to inform the design and effective delivery of policy.
