Scottish Government Pre-Budget Scrutiny 2026-27: Mental Health Spending
Created: 30/06/2025
News/Events Category: Consultations
This item will show under the following categories: Health and Social Care
The Scottish Government's Health, Social Care and Sport Committee is seeking views as part of its pre-budget scrutiny 2026-27. Its scrutiny this year is focused on the mental health budget.
The Committee would like to explore current levels of spending on mental health services and how this is allocated across different interventions. The Committee would also like to explore how decisions on spending allocations are made. Your responses to the following questions will help in informing the Committee’s scrutiny and your input is much appreciated.
About this call for views
The intention of pre-budget scrutiny, which takes place in advance of the publication of the Scottish Budget, is that committees will use pre-budget reports to influence the formulation of spending proposals while they are still in development. The Scottish Budget would normally be expected to be published in December, although timings have yet to be confirmed.
Who they would like to hear from
We welcome responses from a wide range of individuals and organisations, including:
- Members of the public
- Advocacy groups
- Professional bodies
- Industry experts
- Academic institutions
- Government agencies
- Any other stakeholders with an interest in mental health policy and funding
