The UK – including Scotland – has had some of the worst experiences in the world with COVID.

Alex Cole-Hamilton is campaigning to get the Scottish Government to reverse its decision to delay the expansion of free childcare for a whole year.

Alex Cole-Hamilton MSP has been asking for an urgent revision to the vaccine rollout plan after it emerged that only 4% of Edinburgh residents have been vaccinated against Covid19, compared to the average of 12%.

After questioning the First Minister following a statement on drugs policy, Scottish Liberal Democrat health spokesperson Alex Cole-Hamilton MSP commented:

Edinburgh Western MSP Alex Cole-Hamilton questioned the Cabinet Secretary for Health today at Parliament about when we can expect the move in to the new Sick Kids Hospital to be completed. 

Scottish Liberal Democrat health spokesperson and Edinburgh Western MSP Alex Cole-Hamilton has today revealed that NHS Lothian has made more than £28m of repayments for the Royal Hospital for Children and Young People in Edinburgh, despite the facility facing a series of delays to its opening and full operation.

Scottish Liberal Democrat health spokesperson Alex Cole-Hamilton MSP has today called on the Scottish Government to routinely publish how many doses of the various covid vaccines it currently has on hand and criticised a series of blunders that have seen the Health Secretary mistakenly identify a vaccine storage site in England and remove a Covid vaccination plan just hours after it was published.

Scottish Liberal Democrat health spokesperson Alex Cole-Hamilton MSP has today pressed the Heath Secretary for answers surrounding the delay in the rollout of the Covid-19 vaccine in Scotland.

MSPs from the Scottish Liberal Democrats, Scottish Conservatives and Scottish Labour have today formally written to the Deputy First Minister to call for the current Ministerial Code investigation of Nicola Sturgeon MSP to be expanded to include allegations that she misled parliament about when she first knew that the government was investigating complaints against former First Minister Alex Salmond.

Scotland has recorded the worst drug death rates in the entire world for yet another year.
