The Inverness Gull Management Plan Pilot is currently being developed by NatureScot in partnership with Highland Council. The first version of the plan is expected to be in place ahead of the 2026 breeding season. It is being designed as an adaptive framework—flexible, evidence-based, and subject to ongoing refinement through regular review.

The Scottish Government was unable to provide a definitive response to question S6W-41921, as the pilot plan will require continuous updates and adjustments. Consequently, it is not possible to confirm a date for when the plan will be fully finalised.

We have not set out any Good Food Nation key groups. We have established a Ministerial Working Group on Food, which consists of ministers whose portfolio touches on food policy, as well as an official level working group. Both of these groups are strictly for managing the internal workings of government and improving cross-portfolio collaboration. One of the main aims of the Good Food Nation (Scotland) Act 2022 is to ensure joined up and coherent policy making in relation to food. This will require extensive engagement with a wide range of stakeholders within and outwith the Scottish Government to ensure the views of those with an interest are taken into account. This will include agricultural stakeholders and food producers as they all have a key part to play in meeting the ambitious Outcomes set out in the national Good Food Nation Plan, particularly around ensuring our food and drink sector is prosperous, diverse, innovative and vital to national and local economic and social wellbeing.

The Scottish Government and Public Health Scotland continue to support NHS Highland and Highland HSCP to ensure consistent, safe and timely access to vaccination across the area under the new model. The detailed timetable is a matter for NHS Highland and Highland HSCP.

NatureScot has developed the aims, objectives and desired outcomes for the £100k funded initiative to be made available to Local Authorities. NatureScot intend to have a first engagement with Local Authorities before the end of December 2025.

This is a matter for NHS Highland and Highland HSCP.
