Very poorly sourced and uninformative article

[edit]

It reads like an advertising piece rather than an informative and factual article. Unsupported claims made by the subject organisation are presented as facts. eg "During 2009-10, SFT saved the Scottish taxpayer £111 million, which increased to £129 million in 2010–11". There is no reference point for the savings claimed by the organisation nor any corroboration for them. "In 2011-2012, SFT helped deliver £131 million of net benefits and savings to infrastructure investment which were independently validated by Grant Thornton LLP and academics from the London School of Economics and Political Science." This is a misquote. Grant Thornton and the LSE didn't validate that statement - they referred to the number of construction jobs that were created as a result of SFT projects.FScot2 (talk) 14:29, 11 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
