This bit is important. "I want to ensure that our hard-working NHS staff have that opportunity, so I am pleased to confirm all NHS Scotland staff will benefit from the extra holiday." My sector is in the same boat as the NHS and we will get the extra holiday but not all will get it on that day.

Assuming we are looking at Robinson? It defies logic on every level 

So, the Scottish government, led by Swinney, have decided ALL NHS staff are to get this ludicrous Bank Holiday for the World Cup. It's an utter nonsense for anybody but the the decision to give the NHS employees this as a day off will really help the already long waiting lists. A laughing stock.  https://www.gov.scot/news/nhs-staff-to-benefit-from-world-cup-bank-holiday-2/
