Progress reports

An important aspect of the SVC role is to provide scrutiny and supportive challenge to policy makers and those providing services to the veteran community. Beginning in 2019, the SVC has published an annual electronic Progress Report tracking the progress made in implementing the Commissioner’s recommendations from his / her thematic reports. The electronic reports highlight successes as well as areas requiring more attention.

Since the office of the SVC was established in 2014 there have been 10 thematic reports published, resulting in a total of 87 recommendations made to Scottish Ministers, all of which have been accepted in full. The 6 most recent recommendations made in 2024 will be assessed for the first time in 2025.

A fascinating afternoon yesterday in Stirling Castle at the Commonwealth War Graves Commission VJ 80 Commemoration. Another reminder of the suffering of Service people and civilians during War in the Far East. Lest we forget.

It was great to see the Veterans Minister @graemedeymsp launching the Veterans In Service Injury Network (VISIN) in Inverness today. This initiative delivers on a recommendation from the Scottish Veterans Commissioner, and will provide an additional layer of support through this dedicated pathway of care.

A pleasure to catch up with Sue Raw, Secretary of the War Widows Association following the extraordinarily poignant VJ Day 80 Anniversary Service at the Scottish National War Memorial. During the service we heard incredibly moving accounts from veterans and children of veterans. These brought to life the brutal conflict, which saw some of the most intense fighting of WWII and unspeakable cruelty toward prisoners of war. It reminds us of the debt that society owes to those who secured our country's freedom, and those who continue to do so.
