Status
This pledge has not been started. While the Scottish Government reiterated its intention to “start work to develop a new five-year social isolation and loneliness plan” as part of a related funding announcement, no specific strategy has been released and no other details are available.
Other pledges
As a corollary to this promise, the SNP pledged to spend £10m on tackling this issue over the five years.
