Scottish Council


Scottish Council meets in Edinburgh four times a year (February, June, September and November) to debate and develop ideas and initiatives in relation to general practice and primary care in Scotland.
 
There are twenty-five members of the Council and five observers who:
  • Discuss and respond to developments impacting on general practice in Scotland.
  • Comment on UK initiatives and developments in relation to Scottish general practice.
  • Develop initiatives and actions on behalf of the College in Scotland.
  • Provide guidance and direction on College projects, initiatives and activities.
  • Ensure that the College remains as representative as possible of member opinion across Scotland. 
  • Ensure continued recognition of the College in Scotland as a lead player in primary care development in Scotland through the quality of the output across the College to external bodies and to members.
  • Take account of the views of patients, external agencies and members in relation to the College generally and individual activities where appropriate.
A number of agenda items discussed at Scottish Council will originate from developments at UK level, and vice versa. The work of Scottish Council is supported by an Executive Board and Membership Liaison Group. For summaries of the discussions which took place at the most recent meetings, please follow the links below.
