General Question Time
New Refugee Doctors Project
Manivannan, Q Green Edinburgh and Lothians East Watch on SPTV

I thank the cabinet secretary for that answer, but it will mean little to the family of Mohammed Al-Habil, a paramedic at Al-Shifa hospital, who was killed by an Israeli strike about 10 days ago while filling water containers with his teenage son.

Doctors and paramedics in Gaza are being killed more quickly than any scheme can register them. During the election campaign, the Scottish National Party promised to increase use of the new refugee doctors project, which is meant to help medically trained refugees from Gaza and other places to get registered for work in the national health service. Seven weeks in, is the cabinet secretary able to say how many people that promise has reached? Will the Scottish Government commit to fast tracking it before more of Gaza’s medics are killed while waiting?
