Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what recent meetings (a) he has had and (b) other Ministers in his Department have had on leptospirosis.

My Rt Hon. Friend, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care and ministers have had no recent meetings on leptospirosis. The UK Health Security Agency undertakes routine surveillance for leptospirosis infections in humans and publishes a quarterly report on the common animal-associated infections.
