Elected health boards get go-ahead in Scotland
Everyone over the age of 16 will be able to participate in health board elections under Scottish Government plans unanimously approved today by Parliament.
The Health Boards (Membership and Elections) Bill was passed after a Stage Three Parliamentary debate.
It means for the first time members of the public will be able to play an active part in the decisions made by health boards, which in 2009-10 will spend a record £8.64 billion of taxpayers' money.
