Description: [...] these institutional entities function autonomously, so that fostering collaboration was understandably the central aim of my recruitment. [...] public health and related programs are administered across three levels of government: 1 U.K. "national," based at Westminster and Whitehall; 2 Scottish, based at the Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh - which nowadays is taking on a role rather akin to that of Quebec, the historically most independent of provincial governments in Canada; and 3 local councils and 14 regional National Health Service Boards, responsible for the implementation of many - but not all - social welfare, education and health programs.
