The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment he has made of the adequacy of children’s A&E provision in North Worcestershire.

No such assessment has been made by the Department. The commissioning of children’s accident and emergency services in North Worcestershire is the responsibility of local National Health Service commissioners, in partnership with providers and in the best interest of their populations.
