    Joint Health Protection Plan (JHPP)

    The Public Health (Scotland) Act 2008 requires that each Health Board, in Scotland, must lead on the preparation of a Joint Health Protection Plan (JHPP) for its area and must consult with local authorities in doing so. The JHPP provides an overview of:

    • health protection priorities
    • provision and preparedness for the NHS Board area

    The JHPP is produced by the Joint Health Protection Planning Group. The group is made up of representatives from NHS Ayrshire & Arran, the three Ayrshire local authorities (Environmental Health) and the Ayrshire Civil Contingencies Team.
