Health policy is largely devolved, and health services in Northern Ireland are a matter for the Northern Ireland Executive. The Department of Health and Social Care has therefore not made any specific assessment of the provision of gynaecological services, including in general practice, in Northern Ireland.

Ministerial meetings with external organisations are routinely published quarterly on GOV.UK.
