Delivering for scotland — scottish national party

SINCE 2007, EVERY HOME IN SCOTLAND HAS BENEFITED FROM SNP GOVERNMENT POLICIES. We have transformed education, strengthened our NHS, created a new social security system with new

“game-changing” benefits, and delivered over 100,000 affordable homes. We’ve used our powers to build a fairer country, by making Scotland’s tax system more progressive – and launched the

Scottish National Investment Bank to invest in our future. Internationally, Scotland has been recognised for our global responsibility and progressive values – receiving praise from the UN

for our climate action, for example. And despite over 11 years of Tory austerity, we’ve got on with the job of delivering stronger public services and a fairer country. HERE ARE SOME OF OUR

TOP ACHIEVEMENTS: 1. BABY BOX – Giving every baby born in Scotland the best start in life by providing families with a Baby Box, filled with essential items needed in the first six months of

a child’s life. 2. CHILDCARE – All eligible children now benefit from at least 1,140 hours of funded early learning and childcare, saving families around £4,500 per child per year. 3. FREE

TUITION – Students in England face tuition fees up to £27,750 – Scottish students receive university tuition for free, and always will under the SNP. 4. PERIOD POVERTY – Scotland is the

first in the world to make sanitary products available to all those who need them, free of charge. 5. RECORD HIGH HEALTH FUNDING – Our latest health and care portfolio spending exceeds £16

billion, with resource funding up by over 60% under the SNP. 6. FREE PRESCRIPTIONS – Prescription charges abolished in Scotland – now £9.35 per item south of the border. 7. FREE NHS DENTAL

CARE – We have already abolished NHS dental fees for all under-26 year olds, and we will deliver free dental care for everybody by the end of this Parliament. 8. CARE FOR ALL – Free personal

and nursing care extended to everyone who needs it, regardless of age – and we’re now taking steps towards a transformative National Care Service. 9. FREE BUS TRAVEL – Over one million

Scots now enjoy free bus travel across the country, including over-60s and disabled people – and we’re now expanding it further to all young people under 22. 10. SCOTTISH CHILD PAYMENT – Our

new benefit for families, the only one of its kind in the UK, has been called “game-changing” by anti-poverty campaigners, and will help lift around 30,000 children out of poverty.
