Question
To ask the Scottish Government, further to the answer to question S5W-33536 by John Swinney on 10 December 2020, whether it will publish an analysis of the returns before the end of the current parliamentary session.
Answer
In response to the COVID pandemic and the impact on children and young people’s mental health, our local authority partners made excellent progress in the provision of mental health support for young people, including the programme to provide access to counsellors in secondary schools.
We will publish material outlining the returns from local authorities in April 2021.
