Response to Concerns About the Scope and Extent of the Right to Recovery Bill

“It’s disappointing to see the same “concerns” being used to justify voting down a Bill that 80% of public respondents supported. Most of these points don’t stand up to scrutiny they describe the very problems the Bill was designed to fix.
1. “We already have rights under existing laws”
In theory, yes. In practice, no. Scotland already has the Patient Rights Act and Human Rights Act, yet thousands are still denied detox and rehab because there’s no statutory duty to provide them. The Right to Recovery Bill would have made those rights real and enforceable, not just theoretical.
2. “It needs investment, training and system change”
Exactly that’s the point. The Bill would have forced government and services to invest and reform. Saying, “we can’t pass it because we’re not ready” is like refusing to install fire alarms because you haven’t yet bought batteries. You pass the law first, then you fund the implementation.
3. “It doesn’t change practical access”
Tell that to the thousands on waiting lists or stuck in maintenance scripts for decades. The Bill would have guaranteedaccess to detox, rehab and recovery support something the current framework explicitly does not. A legal right changes the culture of gatekeeping and rationing that people face every day.
4. “It duplicates current standards (like MAT standards)”
If those standards were working, Scotland wouldn’t have the highest drug death rate in Europe. MAT standards are guidance, not law. They’re inconsistently applied and unenforceable. The Bill would have given them legal teeth.
5. “It doesn’t cover gambling or polysubstance use”
Legislation always starts with a defined scope. It’s entirely normal to amend and expand laws once enacted. Using that as a reason to block any progress is a classic bureaucratic dodge the perfect excuse for doing nothing while pretending to care.
6. “Cultural change can’t be legislated”
No, but culture follows law. Every major public-health shift, from seatbelts to smoking bans, began with legal rights and duties. Recovery should be no different.
The truth is this: the Bill wasn’t rejected because it was unworkable. It was rejected because it was uncomfortable, it would have made governments and service providers accountable. That’s why it was opposed.” https://www.facebook.com/share/16Umc79WV8/?mibextid=wwXIfr
