PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Coronavirus: Screening (12 May 2021)

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment he has made of the performance of (a) 001 Doctor and (b) other private companies included on the list of providers approved by the Government to offer covid-19 testing services.

Asked by:
Feryal Clark (Labour)

001 Doctor is not listed as a provider of quarantine testing.

Those providers listed on the GOV.UK list have demonstrated compliance with the relevant minimum standards for their commercial provision of testing, this includes undergoing the three-staged United Kingdom Accreditation Service process if they are providing sample collection and/or test analysis services.

The Department is continuing to monitor each provider supplying testing for international arrivals, including assessment of their delivery, customer service and testing services.
