Lord Mackay of Clashfern (Con) [V]
My Lords, what are the arrangements in Scotland as far as the Minister knows?
Lord Bethell (Con)
My Lords, we are taking a four nations approach to the deployment of the vaccine. The Scottish NHS has been involved in all the arrangements we have been putting together and in both the Vaccine Taskforce, to procure the vaccines, and the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation, which has been discussing prioritisation. Furthermore, it has a voice at the DHSC, which is responsible for deployment.
