Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many and what proportion of Clinical Commissioning Groups do not allow varenicline and other stop smoking treatments to be prescribed to patients in primary care; and if he will make a statement.
Answered by Seema Kennedy
NHS England has advised that, because this is a locally commissioned service, they do not hold this information centrally.
