THE Scottish Government is set to pressure their UK counterparts to fast-track visas for people looking to come to work in Scotland’s NHS.
Health Secretary Humza Yousaf confirmed he would be raising the issue in a Four Nations meeting after a question from the Greens’ Gillian Mackay in Holyrood on Tuesday.
Mackay had raised the impact of Brexit and the Home Office’s strict immigration policies on staffing levels in the health service, which is currently seeing crisis levels across the UK.
