To ask the Scottish Government, further to the answer to question S5W-03243 by Shona Robison on 26 October 2016, what percentage of NHS funding will be spent on general practice in each of the next five years.
The Scottish Government is committed to increasing spending on primary care services to 11% of the frontline NHS budget by 2021-22.
