HIV/AIDS
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps his Department is taking to support local commissioning areas to (a) identify and (b) address HIV inequalities.
Answered by Andrew Gwynne
HIV is a key priority for the Government, and we have commissioned officials for advice on how to progress the development of a new HIV Action Plan to end new HIV transmissions within England by 2030, with a strong focus on tackling inequalities, HIV care access and outcomes, and preventive HIV care, which we aim to publish by summer 2025.
We will continue working with local government and other partners, together with the UK Health Security Agency and NSH England, to support local planning, commissioning, and delivery of high quality and effective public services over the long term.
