摘要：	Scottish Transport Minister Graeme Dey has tendered his resignation from the Scottish Government for health-related reasons, after less than a year in the role. Dey served as Minister for Parliamentary Business and Veterans from 2018, and was appointed Transport Minister following the 2021 Holyrood elections. Writing to the First Minister, Dey said: "It has been an absolute privilege to serve as a Minister in the Scottish Government, firstly as Minister for Parliamentary Business and Veterans and latterly, as Minister for Transport. "Regrettably, despite my continuing passion, I find myself unable now to give this hugely important ministerial role everything it rightly requires and deserves. It is therefore with regret that I am writing to resign from office as minister for transport in the Scottish Government." First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said: "This is the right decision for Graeme to reach at this time, and he leaves government with my very best wishes. "He has been a highly effective minister and steps down with many achievements to his name. As Transport Minister, Graeme played a huge part in ensuring the success of COP26. He has also delivered concessionary bus travel for under-22s, set out plans to reduce car travel to meet climate targets, and prepared the ground for the return of Scotland's railway to public ownership.
