Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether he plans to undertake a review of the cost of call charges to the Healthy Start voucher helpline.
Calls to the Healthy Start Issuing Unit cost no more than calls to standard United Kingdom landline phone numbers. An e-mail contact form is also available.
The Department is currently exploring the options for the digitisation of the Healthy Start scheme. As part of this, we will consider the cost of call charges to the Healthy Start Issuing Unit.
