Abstract

The impact of the UK Multidisciplinary Public Health Forum in developing the public health workforce has been the subject of some discussion. However, much of the work to date has focused on the impact of the Forum in the English context. This paper uses the same techniques used to examine the impact of the Forum in England to describe the situation in Scotland. The key themes that emerge are that the impact of the Multidisciplinary Public Health Forum in Scotland was marginal and that a multi-professional approach was the more likely route of development. The adoption of regulatory policy by the UK Government in Westminster had the effect of producing a multidisciplinary approach in Scotland. The relationship of these findings to the experiences of Wales and Northern Ireland is discussed.
