To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, pursuant to the answer of 16 October 2026 to question 34598, whether the final guidance will reflect concerns raised by the National Down Syndrome Policy Group.

There is no further update to provide the Rt. Hon. Member at this time, but we will ensure that Parliament, and stakeholders such as the National Down Syndrome Policy Group, are informed as soon as the statutory guidance is ready for publication.
