To ask the Scottish Government, in light of the Independent Review of Audiology Services in Scotland report making 55 recommendations to improve services, whether it will provide (a) a breakdown of the number of recommendations that (i) have been fully implemented to date, (ii) are in operational work plans and (iii) remain dependent on linked actions and (b) the timescale for completion of each outstanding recommendation.
A national programme of work to address recommendations of the Independent Review of Audiology Services in Scotland was concluded in 2025. A final report was produced which sets out how recommendations have either been implemented and completed, or embedded in longer term work programmes within the health and social care system.
