The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment he has made of the adequacy of the provision of health services for women.

Answered by Karin Smyth

Women’s health is a priority for this government. We are considering how to take forward the Women’s Health Strategy and aligning our work on women’s health with the forthcoming 10-Year Health Plan.

Work continues to improve health outcomes for women, including the £25 million women’s health hubs pilot, new NICE guidance on endometriosis and menopause and extending the Baby Loss Certificate service.
