Question
To ask the Scottish Government when the Cabinet Secretary for Health and Sport will next meet with the Chief Executive of NHS Highland.
Answer
Ministers and Scottish Government officials regularly meet with representatives of all Health Boards, including NHS Highland.
I joined a weekly virtual meeting of health board CEOs on the 5th of June.
At this present time the Scottish Government are in frequent contact with all NHS Boards on their planning and preparations to safely and gradually resume some paused services, while continuing to maintain Covid-19 capacity and resilience.
