- Regarding PrEP access in Scotland, here's the update from HIV Scotland (as of February 2017): "In order for PrEP to be made available on the NHS in Scotland it needs to be approved by the SMC, and as part of the decision-making process the SMC will consider evidence in the form of Patient Group Submissions. An application for a drug to be used as PrEP was made to the SMC in December 2016. They have subsequently invited patient groups to make Patient Group Submissions by 6 February 2017, and on 10 April 2017 will announce whether they approve of providing PrEP on the NHS in Scotland."[2]
