Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he plans to take to use learning from the delivery of the covid-19 vaccine to deliver NHS Health Checks to support public health and health prevention measures.

The NHS Health Check Expert Scientific and Clinical Advisory Panel (ESCAP) acts in an advisory capacity to support successful deployment, maintenance, evaluation and continued improvement of the Health Checks programme based on the best available evidence. Any emerging research or evaluation on the COVID-19 vaccine programme, which may have implications for the NHS Health Check, will be considered by ESCAP.
