Health Services: Women
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether he plans to review the Women’s Health Strategy.
Answered by Karin Smyth
The Government is committed to prioritising women’s health as we build a National Health Service fit for the future.
Our focus is on turning the commitments in the Women's Health Strategy into tangible actions, for instance by providing emergency hormonal contraception free of charge at pharmacies on the NHS from October 2025, taking urgent action to tackle gynaecology waiting lists through the Elective Reform Plan, and setting out how we will eliminate cervical cancer by 2040 through the new cervical cancer plan.
