PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Influenza: Vaccination (13 November 2015)

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, how much was allocated to fund influenza vaccinations for clinical staff in the independent and voluntary sector in 2014-15; and how much of that funding was spent on (a) residential, (b) domiciliary and (c) other community care services.

Asked by:
Stuart Andrew (Conservative)

Funding is not provided centrally for the vaccination of health and social care workers. Flu vaccination for all health and social care workers, including clinical staff working in the independent and voluntary sector is an occupational health issue and is the responsibility of the employer.
