Cardinal calls on Scottish Government to end "failing" sexual health strategies
In a strongly worded response to the Scottish Government's Sexual Health Strategy Second Annual Report, published last week, Cardinal Keith O'Brien has accused the SNP administration of supporting a strategy "which they did not devise and which has demonstrably failed".In a letter to the Minister for Public Health, Shona Robison MSP, the Cardinal quotes a "catastrophic decline in sexual health as measured by all the relevant indicators" and repeats his 2004 call for the Government to "consider alternative approaches to sexual health, which set sexual activity within a moral context".
The full text of the letter is at the Scottish Catholic Media Office.
