I am very sorry that @RichardLochhead has decided to step down at the next election. He has been an outstanding Member of the Scottish Parliament, Government Minister, colleague and friend. I wish him and Fiona well for all that lies ahead.

I’m so sorry and shocked to hear this very sad news. I knew Jim well and he was a friend and of course an inspirational and popular business leader and lovely human being. He was a true gentleman who did so much for Speyside. My deepest condolences to his lovely wife and family.
SIR JAMES N WALKER CBE (1944-2024) With great sadness, we announce the passing of Sir James Walker CBE on 15th December 2024. We will honour his legacy and continue the values he upheld. Read the full statement on our website blog: walkersshortbread.com/blog/s… #SirJamesWalker

🏥 The latest position set out is much more positive than previous discussions and the team working on the plans are clearly very determined to deliver on the promise to restore a consultant-led service at Dr Gray’s.

🙌 It is really heartening to hear that 75% of the staff required are now recruited, which will allow the project team to carefully re-build the service in a way that is sustainable and fit for the future.

❗️The importance of this service can’t be understated and the reintroduction of elective caesareans in 2025 will be the first big milestone on the way to full restoration. For women and families in Moray, increased access to services locally cannot come quick enough.
