Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, with reference to the oral contribution of the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Health on 10 June 2014, Official Report, column 391, whether the results of the NHS England-funded audit on urogynaecological procedures for stress urinary incontinence have been published.

NHS England’s Healthcare Quality Improvement Partnership commissioned the British Society of Urogynaecology (BSUG) to undertake this audit. All surgeons, including gynaecologists and urologists, carrying out stress incontinence surgery in England were requested to retrospectively produce personal results for the period 1 January 2013 to 31 December 2013, which would be analysed and published. The ‘National BSUG audit of stress urinary incontinence surgery in England’ is available at the following link:
