Current status: Answered by Maree Todd on 6 January 2025
To ask the Scottish Government, further to the comments by the Minister for Social Care, Mental Wellbeing and Sport during the members' business debate on motion S6M-14427 (Reversal of £10 Million Funding for Changing Places Toilets) on 11 December 2024, how much funding has been allocated from within its draft mental health budget for 2025-26 for the planned Changing Places Toilet Fund.
As emphasised during the Parliamentary debate on Changing Places Toilets (CPTs) on 11 December, there has been no reversal of the decision to provide funding for CPTs. I expect to be in a position to provide details of the amount of funding we propose to provide in the New Year. Funding will rely on Parliamentary approval of the Scottish Government’s Budget Bill.
