We must make sure our decisions on all of the COVID protection measures are necessary, proportionate and targeted in delivering our four harms approach to alleviating the direct harms of COVID-19, the indirect health harms, and the social and economic harms. We continue to take and review decisions based on the latest evidence from clinical and scientific literature, from public opinion, and from international experience.

Our review process includes regular engagement with businesses about the protection measures which will help us to break the chains of transmission, and that is set out in the Business and Regulatory Impact Assessment.

The Scottish Government is clear that we expect gamekeepers, alongside other land managers, will play a key role in our plans to protect and restore biodiversity, and ensure that the land is managed to help us mitigate and adapt to climate change. We also recognise the economic and social value that sporting estates can bring to rural communities. As we develop and implement policy in these areas we will seek opportunities to engage with gamekeepers both formally and informally and we hope they will continue to share their expertise and experience.

It is anticipated that there will be no change and that ScotRail Trains Limited will continue to publish the same information on operational performance as is currently published by Abellio ScotRail.

The opening hours for each ticket office are agreed and regulated under Schedule 17 of the Ticket Settlement Agreement. Any major proposed changes to ticket office opening hours require a public consultation of up to 21 days.

There have been no major changes to the opening hours of ScotRail ticket offices since 1991.

As advised in response to the question S6W-03892, the booster vaccination programme is administered by health boards and GP practices. NHS health board costs across Scotland will vary depending on their location, cost structures, and local delivery mechanisms.

The Scottish Government is conscious of demonstrating value for the public pound and to this extent, it costs £12.58 per vaccination dose (whether first, second, third or booster) when administered by GP practices.
