Mr Mather said: "It is very encouraging to visit areas like West Lothian and Inverclyde and see companies determined to expand and create new jobs in a challenging economic climate.
"RSA support shows the Scottish Government's comprehensive economic recovery programme is providing real help to businesses across the country, helping them weather tough conditions and emerge stronger from recession."
Mr Mather's programme in Livingston includes visits to ScoMac Catering, the Alba Innovation Centre and a seminar with stakeholders on maximising West Lothian's contribution to Scotland's economic potential.
