Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment he has made of the implications for his policies of the recommendations of the APPG report into osteoporosis published in November 2022.

The report’s recommendations are predominately being addressed through the Women’s Health Strategy and National Institute for Health and Care Excellence’s guidance on assessing and managing the risk of fragility fractures in people aged 18 years old and over. NHS England’s Getting It Right First Time programme aims to improve access to secondary fracture prevention services to supplement the Best MSK Health programme.
