Scottish Parliament to debate preventative health spend

Members of the Scottish Parliament will discuss the preventative health agenda in a Holyrood debate secured by the Health and Sport Committee later (Tuesday 18 April).

The Committee has been examining actions to reduce demand on health in the longer term, following on the work of the Christie Commission on the Future Delivery of Public Services, and the Finance Committee in 2010.

The Health and Sport Committee Debate: Inquiry into the Preventative Health Agenda is scheduled for the afternoon session at the Scottish Parliament from 2pm.

You can read more details on the Debate here or view the Scottish Parliamentary Chamber from 2pm here
