Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether the Health Promotion Taskforce will meet before the end of 2022.

The Government has agreed an updated Cabinet committee structure to deliver its priorities. The committees can discuss a range of policy areas relevant to its terms of reference. The Health Promotion Taskforce is not a part of this updated structure.

However, as set out in ‘Our plan for patients’, this will include addressing preventable ill-health by collaboration across the Government and the National Health Service.
