The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what progress has been made towards delivering the Government's commitment to provide universal access to Fracture Liaison Services by 2030; and when he plans to publish a timetable setting out the key milestones for implementation.

Answered by Mrs Sharon Hodgson

Our 10-Year Health Plan committed to rolling out Fracture Liaison Services across every part of the country by 2030.

Integrated care boards (ICBs) remain well placed to make decisions according to local need.

The Renewed Women’s Health Strategy sets an expectation that ICBs prioritise community-based models when commissioning new fracture prevention services.
