To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, when his Department plans to set out a timetable for the delivery of dementia moonshot funding.

Asked by:
Navendu Mishra (Labour)

Answer

There is currently no planned date for publication of a strategy to deliver the dementia moonshot.

However, we have committed to invest £375 million in neurodegenerative disease research over the next five years to fund projects into a range of diseases, including dementia. A new dementia strategy, which will set out our plans in England for future years, including on research, will be published in 2022.
