Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what discussions he has had with the Cabinet Office on the proposed new NHS guidelines and standards for ultraviolet air cleaners.
This question was answered on 9th November 2022
There have been no specific discussions. NHS England is developing new guidance in relation to the use of ultraviolet air cleaners in the National Health Service. This guidance is being developed to ensure consistency with other applicable guidance, including ‘ISO 15714:2019 Method of evaluating the UV dose to airborne microorganisms transiting in-duct ultraviolet germicidal irradiation devices’.
