Integration of health and social care is one of Scotland's major programmes of reform. Following the dissolution of Community Health Partnerships, the Public Bodies (Joint Working) (Scotland) Act 2014 gave the impetus for the development of Integration Authorities. Integration Authorities represent partnerships between Local Authorities and Health Boards for delivering health and social care services and integration of budgets. There are 31 Integration Authorities in Scotland, all coterminous with their Local Authority boundary with the exception of Clackmannanshire and Stirling councils which form a single Integration Authority.
