Health, Social Care and Sport Committee
Patient Safety Commissioner for Scotland Bill: Stage 1
Meeting date: 7 February 2023
Gillian Martin
I would like to bring other members in. I am sorry that I need to curtail the questioning a bit. I will bring you back in later, Paul, but Evelyn Tweed has a question on that issue. I remind people of the time—we are halfway through our evidence session and I would like to give most of the speaking time to the witnesses.

I will bring in Simon Watson then move to questions from Gillian Mackay. We will look at the medicines and medical devices aspect before we go back to data and information gathering.

Decision on Taking Business in Private

Good morning and welcome to the fifth meeting in 2023 of the Health, Social Care and Sport Committee. I have not received any apologies. Paul O’Kane will be attending online, but the rest of us are here in person.
The first item is for the committee to decide whether to take items 3 and 4 in private. Do we agree to do that?
Members indicated agreement.

Colleagues, I am going to move us on. We have got only 20 minutes left and we still have two substantive themes to discuss: independence from the Scottish Government and the NHS, and resourcing. If we have time at the end, we can come back to any outstanding questions that members have, but it is important that we give those two themes a good airing.
Our questions on independence from the Scottish Government and the NHS will be led by David Torrance.

Before I allow my colleagues to come in, I would like to ask you a follow-up question. This morning, we heard people describe a pattern of errors in particular health board areas of which their personal experiences had been one part. They had made the assumption that lessons had not been learned. How would Healthcare Improvement Scotland work in investigating such cases alongside a patient safety review? Would there be partnership working, or would there be an overlap? I would like to understand where you see that work taking place.

Would that include their telling you where they felt that you could step up or do things differently?
