NHS: Standards
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment he has made of the adequacy of the elected care framework.
Answered by Karin Smyth
We are committed to working closely with the Northern Irish and other devolved administrations to tackle the shared challenges faced by our health systems. Health is predominantly a devolved issue. However, the Department works collaboratively with the devolved administrations to drive forward our objective of supporting people to lead more independent, healthier lives for longer.
