Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what plans he has to roll out lateral flow covid-19 testing in Havering.

The Borough of Havering made a request in the week of 9 November to be added to the Departmental list of participating local authorities.

We have received their request and will work with them as they prepare to receive lateral flow test to use as per their priorities.
