Letter from Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care regarding initial Covid-19 funding to NHS boards
Dear Gillian,
I have confirmed today initial funding of £380 million for NHS Boards in 2021-22 to meet ongoing costs associated with Covid-19. This includes funding for PPE, Test and Protect and delivery of Covid-19 vaccinations. Details of this funding are set out in the Annex to this letter.
The Scottish Government will continue to ensure that our health and care services have the funding that they require to respond to this pandemic, and will make available further additional support following our detailed Quarter One financial review. I will update the Committee on progress following this review.
Best wishes,
Humza Yousaf
Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care
