Answered by Ashley Dalton

My Rt Hon. Friend, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care and ministers have had no recent meetings on leptospirosis. The UK Health Security Agency undertakes routine surveillance for leptospirosis infections in humans and publishes a quarterly report on the common animal-associated infections.
