Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment his Department has made of the potential merits of publishing a Men's Health Strategy.

No assessment has been made. However, the Government is taking action to address conditions that affect men, including suicide, heart disease, cancer and associated risk factors such as smoking. As with other major conditions and drivers of ill health, we consider the impact that each issue has at a population level and the most effective ways to address them, including for the groups most impacted.
