Health and social care - service renewal framework: island communities impact assessment
Island communities impact assessment carried our for the Service Renewal Framework, a reform initiative aimed at transforming health and social care in Scotland, promoting a vision where individuals lead longer, healthier lives
A full Islands Community Impact Assessment is NOT required
In preparing the ICIA, I have formed an opinion that our policy, strategy or service is NOT likely to have an effect on an island community which is significantly different from its effect on other communities (including other island communities). The reason for this is detailed below.
Reason for not completing a full Islands Communities Impact Assessment:
At this stage, no unique impacts for island communities has been identified due to the high strategic level of the approach.
To ensure that any policy level impacts are fully understood and mitigations are in place where applicable, appropriate impact assessments will be carried out where appropriate on individual actions in the Framework.
