Commenting on BMA Scotland’s engagements in Brussels to discuss post-Brexit solutions for doctors, Health Secretary Shona Robison said: “BMA Scotland are right to raise the huge risks to our NHS that Brexit poses to the recruitment and retention of EU staff. 

“That’s why I have been clear that the only way to protect staff and patients is to stay in the EU, and failing that, retain our membership of the Single Market and Customs Union. Without that, we could see diminished cross-border recognition of qualifications, slower access to new research or medicines and fewer rights for Scottish patients to have treatment in the EU.

“If the UK government delivers a Brexit that harms NHS staffing, then powers should be devolved to allow the Scottish Government to develop a tailored migration system to support the recruitment and retention of a sustainable medical workforce.”
