Health, Social Care and Sport Committee

Scrutiny of NHS Boards (NHS Lothian, NHS Grampian and NHS Fife)

Meeting date: 6 June 2023

Evelyn Tweed

Good morning, panel. Carol Potter, you talk about the waiting well process and how you send out letters to patients when there are long waits. Can you explain that process for us and tell us what sort of patient feedback you are getting? It seems eminently sensible to do that, but I do not think that all boards are doing it. Is it something that we could perhaps share as good practice?

We know that socioeconomic status is the biggest factor in whether people are involved in physical activity, but how can we ensure that funding is used where it is most needed and that inequalities are not further entrenched?

I assume that that is very important at the present time, minister, given that we are living through a cost of living crisis.

Health, Social Care and Sport Committee

Scrutiny of NHS Boards (State Hospitals Board for Scotland)

Meeting date: 30 May 2023

Evelyn Tweed

Good morning, Robin. Will you update the committee on the progress that is being made towards opening a high-secure service for women at the state hospital?

Do you foresee the opening of the new Cornton Vale prison having any impact on the high-secure treatment services for women?

Meeting date: 30 May 2023

Ailsa Wyllie mentioned that we need strong role models. How do we ensure that we get strong role models coming forward, whether those are athletes, coaches or anyone else who is involved with female sport?

Can I come back in on that point?

Okay. Does anybody else wants to come in on what Maureen McGonigle said about diversity and making sure that it goes wider? What are organisations doing about targets, action plans and ensuring that we have diversity? Kim Atkinson, you are nodding.

How does it work with the women who are at the facility in England seeing their family and friends?

Health, Social Care and Sport Committee

Meeting date: 23 May 2023

Do we know whether coaches are being trained to understand how cycles or hormones impact performance? How are we helping young women and girls to understand the changes in their performance and why they happen? I saw Baz Moffat shaking her head there—perhaps Baz would like to come in.
