Today - April 1, 2016 - is when health and social care changes in Scotland.

From today, partnerships will be responsible for bringing together local health care and council services as the bid to tackle how we deal with the ageing population takes a step forward.

But on this day, it also strikes me how little health has been talked about in the election campaign so far.

On STV's Leaders' Debate on Tuesday night, there was a good question asking each of the party leaders what they thought were the weaknesses in the system and how they could be fixed.

There was electioneering, there was self-promotion, but there wasn't an assessment of what needs to be treated in the health system.

There are targets set for A&E waiting times that are often not met by the majority of hospitals. They're close but not quite there.

Some weeks, the figures show there are hospitals as much as 20% off the target of 95% of patients seen within four hours.

How should this be resolved?

The SNP are proposing five new elective treatment centres. Have any of the other parties looked into whether this is the right approach to the health system's needs? Have they come up with alternatives?

No, the health system is not falling apart and we certainly don't have the problems that are seen south of the border with the Mr Hunt vs Junior Doctors battle.

But as we come to the end of the first week of campaigning, there's been a lot - and I mean a lot - of talk about education.

We know all about income tax.

But do we know how they're going to keep us fit, healthy and well?

Because policies on education apply to the majority of voters but health applies to all.

The campaign properly began this week and Tuesday's STV Leaders' Debate brought out some fiery exchanges during the cross-examinations.

Ruth Davidson is fighting to become the main opposition leader in Holyrood but on Tuesday, Nicola Sturgeon managed to extract that the Tories want to bring in a graduate contribution of £6000 for a four-year degree and re-introduce prescription charges.

Kezia Dugdale had a fairly reasonable debate, putting some clear water between her and both the SNP and Tories. But on Wednesday it was revealed Scottish Labour no longer needed their plan to give low paid workers a £100 rebate if a 1p income tax increase was introduced. George Osborne, of all people, helped them out with his changes to the personal allowance.

For Willie Rennie, he's performed well in both debates and seems to be enjoying the campaign but is still stung by the charge that the Lib Dems put the Tories in government. Although, in the debate, it was the first time I've heard him come up with an answer. Whether you agree with it or not, he's making an attempt to address it.

The SNP continue to campaign and Nicola Sturgeon is out every day - she's not taking a back seat in this race. But compared to last Thursday's BBC debate where she could be said to be one of the strongest performers, on Tuesday it wasn't as easy a ride with the cross-examination and the audience's reaction showing there's still clear division on the independence question.

Patrick Harvie was given plaudits the morning after the debate by quite a few newspapers. The Greens also released their tax plans this week, which would see anyone earning over £26,500 and/or living in a property worth more than £110,000 paying more tax. We'll see if this translates into second votes from people who want a "fairer" system for all or if they are a bit more reserved when it comes to their own finances.
