The Scottish Tory leader asked questions pertaining to ovarian cancer and pressed Humza Yousaf on why Scottish patients had to go privately in England to get treatment
The case of a woman having to wait three months and then get private treatment in England was "unacceptable", agreed the FM
The Scottish Labour leader asked if the FM had become "complacent" about "Scotland's biggest killer"

Thank you for joining us. The editor today was Paul McLaren and the writers were Craig Hutchison and Auryn Cox.
Background: Rosebank oil field given go-ahead by regulators
Located 80 miles west of Shetland, Rosebank is the UK's largest untapped oil field and is estimated to contain up to 300 million barrels of oil.
Development and production approval has been given to owners Equinor and Ithaca Energy, following reassurances over environmental concerns.
The plan has faced widespread criticism due to its impact on climate change
Rosebank decision wrong while planet burns, says FM
Green MSP Mark Ruskell says yesterday's decision to grant a licence for the Rosebank oil and gas field off Shetland "is nothing short of a climate catastrophe" and it shows "utter contempt for our environment and future generations".
The FM agrees, saying: "I think it is the wrong decision to approve Rosebank at a time when the world is literally on fire."
"The planet is burning," Yousaf adds and he accuses the UK government of "climate denial".
He insists his party belives in a greener and more sustainable future for Scotland.

Conservative MSP Sharon Dowey thanks the emergency services who tackled the fire at the former Station Hotel in Ayr and asks what financial help the Scottish government is giving to help reopen the local rail network.
Humza Yousaf also offers his appreciation to those who helped deal with the fire.
"Of course the government will be open to discussions around what support we can provide in order to not just secure this site but to make sure that services are running as close to normal as they possibly can," he says.

Fergus Ewing has criticised the Scottish government over several of its policiesImage caption: Fergus Ewing has criticised the Scottish government over several of its policies
Former SNP minister Fergus Ewing has been suspended from the party for a week after a disciplinary vote by MSPs.
Mr Ewing has been a critic of the party leadership and had voted against the government in a no-confidence motion.
The SNP's Holyrood Group confirmed the proposal was backed by 48 votes to nine with four abstentions.
Mr Ewing was represented at the hearing by lawyer John Campbell KC. He has two weeks in which to appeal the decision before the punishment begins.
First Minister Humza Yousaf returned home due to illness before the vote and did not take part.
We now hear from Fergus Ewing, fresh from his suspension from the SNP group.
The SNP MSP, which he remains despite the disciplinary action, asks about the commitment to dual the A96 and says his constituents "are still waiting".
Ewing calls for an oral statement on the issue to explain why there has been such a delay.
The FM agrees the people of Inverness and Nairn are absolutely due an update and he will consider a ministerial statement or a written update to interested
The commitment of dualling the A96 remains, he says.
Not enough budget cash going on mental health services, argues Labour MSP
Labour MSP Paul Sweeny points to research from the Royal College of Psychiatrists which suggests 58% of people in Scotland believe that mental health services receive too little of the health care budget.
Only 8.7% of the health budget is going to mental health and the target is 10%.
The FM argues the budget has increased significantly.
First minister says rape charities support juryless trials
Christine Grahame of the SNP asks the first minister what the Scottish government’s response is to some members of the judiciary expressing opposition to juryless rape trials.
Humza Yousaf responds that the Senators of the College of Justice response clearly sets out that they do have split views over the pilot but adds that Rape Crisis Scotland and other charities are in support of it.
Grahame then asks the FM if he can confirmf there will be robust scrutiny of the juryless rape trials proposal.
He says he will give appropriate weight to any concerns over the pilot but says that the government does need to improve the experience of rape complainers.
Quote Message: I'll end with a quote from Rape Crisis Scotland which has stayed with me since my days as justice secretary and to this day that many survivors describe the process of going to court as more traumatic than the actual rape itself. That is unacceptable in any justice system." from Humza Yousaf First minister

Background: How many Scots are taking antidepressants

The number of Scots taking antidepressants has risen to more than a million for the first time.
Statistics from Public Health Scotland (PHS) obtained by the Mail on Sunday show that 1,020,000 people aged 18 and older are on antidepressants.
However, PHS urged caution in interpreting its data as many drugs classified as antidepressants can also be used for other conditions.
Last month the BBC's investigative Disclosure programme covered antidepressants and spoke to people who said they were not being given appropriate advice about the potential side effects of the drugs they are prescribed.
Tory MSP Sue Webber asks what assessment has been made of the use of antidepressants in Scotland.
The FM replies his government will shortly publish a prescribing guide.
The Tory MSP says over a million people in Scotland are prescribed antidepressants and stresses "patients are asking for more than pills".
This answer disturbs the FM as he says it insinuates antidepressants are not a legitimate treatment.
Yousaf says he is proud of his government's record on funding mental health services.
On antidepressants, that is a clinical question best left to health professoinals, adds the FM.
Background: Contamination at popular swimming sites

It was revealed earlier this week that more than half of the wild swimming spots in Scotland have been polluted with unsafe levels of sewage.
A designated bathing water is essentially an official way of recognising a body of water is a popular site for swimming or other water activities.
Contamination mostly occurs after heavy rain, which causes sewers to overflow or washes animal faeces from farms and land into the waters.
'50 out of 89 most popular beaches beyond safe standards for bathing'
That's "astonishingly complacent", says Scottish Lib Dem MSP Willie Rennie on the first minister's response to contaminated swimming water
He points out 50 out of 89 of the most popular beaches are beyond safe standards for bathing.
He calls for the proper measurement of all sewage outflows and the FM responds by saying Scottish Water and SEPA are taking the issue seroiusly.
Tory MSP raises 'widespread contamination' of outdoor swimming sites
Tory MSP Liz Smith asks what action the Scottish government is taking in response to reports of widespread contamination at many of Scotland’s outdoor swimming sites.
The first minister disagrees with the term "widespread" and says his goverment is committed to improving water quality.
Smith replies the most recent investigations at Lower Largo in Fife found the "most polluted beach in Scotland".
On three occasions it was 50 times the contamination limit, she adds, asking what the government is going to do about the frequency of checks.
The FM accepts the situation at Lower Largo is a serious one, but points out 98% of Scotland's bathing waters meeting the quality standard.
Have the SNP got complacent, Sarwar asks
The Scottish Labour leader says every cancer delay raises the chance of avoidable death.
He points to stats from a Freedom of Information request that show how long some patients have waited.
"There was even a cancer patient who waited 385 days for diagnosis and to start treatment. You can't blame someone somewhere else for that," Sarwar says.
And he asks the FM if the SNP have got complacent and is no longer putting the interests of the Scottish people first.
Humza Yousaf replies that he leaves that question to the people and points out that the SNP is still the leading party in Scotland, in part due to the government's investment in the NHS.
Cut the excuses, says Sarwar
Anas Sarwar tells the first minister to "cut the excuses" and reminds the FM that the Covid pandemic started three years ago and the Scottish government has not hit the 62-day wait target in 11 years.
He asks Humza Yousaf if he will apologise for the "lost decade on the SNP's watch".
The first minister says that the government, of course, apologises and has deep regret when people do not get the treatment as quickly as they should.
But he points to austerity from the UK government as being the issue over the last 10 years and says the SNP has made record investments in the NHS.
Labour leader Sarwar also challenges FM on cancer wait times

Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar is up next and also asks about NHS cancer wait times.
Has the government become "complacent against Scotland's biggest killer," he asks.
The first minister says that both Anas Sarwar and Douglas Ross are right to raise what is a crucial issue for people across Scotland.
"We are recovering from a global pandemic, that pandemic has had an impact not just on our health service but of our cancer services," he says.
And he points to stats that show more cancer patients are being seen than a decade ago.
'Bitterly disappointing' response to patients' concerns
Yousaf points out there has been an almost 100% increase in oncologist consultants since the SNP came to power.
The FM says his government is looking to see what more can be done to tackle ovarian cancer.
Douglas Ross says those answers will be "bitterly disappointing" to the women he has quoted.
The Scottish Tory leader argues the resources are not in place to implement the cancer strategy and one patient in NHS Grampian has waited for 156 days for chemotherapy to star.
Ross asks what the FM is going to do to sort this.
Treatment of cancer a number one priority, says FM

The first minister says the journey of recovery for the NHS will take years.
Humza Yousaf accepts the health strategies must be funded and the waiting times improved.
"The treatment of cancer, the early diagnosis and treatment of cancer is absolutely a number one priority."
'Why are the resources not available for this treatment?'
Ross turns to another cancer case study, this time Irene Hartshorn from Ayr who was told she had to wait 12 weeks for treatment for ovarian cancer.
This left her feeling "powerless" and she said if she had waited she thinks she would be dead , says the Scottish Tory leader.
Why are the resources not available for this type of treatment in Scotland, he asks.
Ovarian cancer being treated with 'utmost seriousness'
The first minister says the services in NHS England have also been impacted by Covid.
The issue of ovarian cancer is being treated with the "utmost seiousness".
He pledges to write to Douglas Ross with more detail.

Background: Contamination at popular swimming sites
It was revealed earlier this week that more than half of the wild swimming spots in Scotland have been polluted with unsafe levels of sewage.
Analysis by the investigative journalism platform The Ferret, showed that 50 of the country’s 89 designated bathing waters have breached European safety limits for faecal bacteria at least once when they were tested.
A designated bathing water is essentially an official way of recognising a body of water is a popular site for swimming or other water activities.
Contamination mostly occurs after heavy rain, which causes sewers to overflow or washes animal faeces from farms and land into the waters.
