Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether it remains her policy to narrow the gap in health life expectancy by 2030 by addressing wider determinants of health.
‘Our plan for patients’, published on 22 September, sets out the immediate priorities to support individuals to live healthier lives, including improving access to health and care services in all areas and preventing ill-health. Further information on measures to address health disparities will be available in due course.
