Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, with reference to the recommendations in the report by the all-party Parliamentary group on Sexual and Reproductive Health, entitled Women’s lives, women’s rights, whether the forthcoming Sexual and Reproductive Health Strategy will consider the integration of sexual and reproductive health care into existing NHS women’s healthcare pathways.
It is not within scope of the forthcoming Sexual and Reproductive Health Strategy to set out changes to existing commissioning arrangements for sexual and reproductive health services. However, as part of the development process of the Strategy, we are considering issues related to collaborative commissioning, including the opportunities which new models of care can offer, such as women’s health hubs.
