The Cabinet Secretary for the Constitution, External Affairs and Culture (Шаблон:Lang-gd), commonly referred to as the Constitution Secretary (Шаблон:Lang-gd), is a cabinet position in the Scottish Government. The Cabinet Secretary is supported by the Minister for Culture, Europe and International Development.

The current Cabinet Secretary for the Constitution, External Affairs and Culture is Angus Robertson, who assumed office in May 2021.

History

The United Kingdom European Union membership referendum took place on 23 June 2016. This position was established (initially as "Minister for UK Negotiations on Scotland's Place in Europe") so that the Scottish government would be involved in the development of the UK government's position before the Prime Minister triggered Article 50.[1]

During a Scottish Government reshuffle in June 2018, the post was promoted to the Cabinet and renamed Cabinet Secretary for Government Business and Constitutional Relations.[2] It was further renamed to Cabinet Secretary for the Constitution, Europe and External Affairs in February 2020.[3]
