PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(5 February 2025)

Asked by:
Maureen Burke (Labour)

While health is predominantly devolved, working together across the United Kingdom on health and social care is ingrained in our values. NHS emergency care is available for all patients, regardless of borders and we are working with the Devolved Governments to support people to lead independent, healthier lives for longer. This government has provided an additional £6.6 billion through the Barnett formula to support the Scottish Government.
