PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(25 November 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether the 10 Year Health Plan will help tackle specific health challenges faced by women; and whether gender-specific health interventions such as menstruation will be included in its long-term goals.

Asked by:
Sarah Champion (Labour)

Answer

The Government is committed to prioritising women’s health as we reform the National Health Service, and women’s equality will be at the heart of our missions. We are considering how to take forward the Women’s Health Strategy, by aligning it to the Government’s missions and forthcoming 10-Year Health Plan.

The 10-Year Plan will ensure a better health service for everyone, regardless of condition or service area. We will carefully be considering policies with input from the public, patients, health and care staff, and our partners as we develop the plan.
