To ask the Scottish Government what action it is taking to offset the reported lack of parking provision at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow.
Provision of parking facilities at hospitals is the responsibility of Health Boards. Scottish Government officials are in on-going dialogue with NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde on the issue of parking at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital. They are closely monitoring recent improvements which have been introduced by the board who, following a review carried out by them following introduction of the improvements, have confirmed that there has been a substantial increase in parking spaces available on-site for staff (both permit and non-permit), patients and visitors.
