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 promote the vaccination of eligible children against Covid-19.

We continue to provide information for parents and carers of eligible children on the benefits of the COVID-19 vaccination. Invitations have been issued which include details on the ease and flexibility of booking appointments through the National Booking Service and the range of vaccination sites available which can be accessed without an appointment. COVID-19 vaccination has also been promoted through schools in England, which have received details of local vaccination sites through the National Health Service. These sites are ensuring that facilities can accommodate the needs of families and young children.
