Answered by Angela Constance on 8 Oct 2026 · 1 day after it was lodged, on time

The Scottish Government is today publishing the Health and Social Care Reform Progress Report
- Year 1 Delivery of Population Health Framework (PHF) and Health and Social Care Service Renewal Framework (SRF), delivering on our commitment to transparent public reporting on progress of delivery of long-term health and social care reform.The report has been authored jointly with COSLA reflecting the collaborative ownership of the PHF and SRF and, presents progress against the four core areas of the Health and Social Care Vision: Prevention, Access, Quality, and Personled Care.Together, the first year of implementation provides us with strong foundations and positive progress across the range of high-level actions in the two frameworks. The next phase of work will build on the progress and partnerships established during Year 1 and will be characterised not only by the continued delivery of existing commitments.The Scottish Government is committed to maintaining momentum towards our shared ambitions, ensuring Scotland's health, social care and wider public services are equipped to meet the challenges and opportunities of the years ahead, while continuing to drive improvements in population health, tackle inequalities, and deliver high-quality, sustainable services for the people of Scotland.The Report can be accessed here: https://www.gov.scot/isbn/9781807756291
