You can download the episode directly here.

This week, Craig talks to Nick Kempe, Convenor of the Common Weal Care Reform Group, about the return of the National Care Service Bill to the Scottish Parliament within the next couple of weeks. They discuss why Common Weal campaigned for a pause to the Bill process, how we've engaged with the co-design process in the time since and what we expect from the Bill when it returns. They also discuss the Care Group's briefing on the Bill that was published this week.
