Through the policies that it is putting in place, the Scottish Government is making stringent efforts to improve the situation. There is a huge contrast between our actions to bring mental health services into line with those for physical health and what is happening—or not happening—elsewhere in the UK. Clearly, a huge Barnett consequential follows from that. Innovative and creative examples are happening locally across Scotland and I welcome the partnership approach that is being taken in prioritising that commitment.
