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 departments in Northern Ireland on the potential impact of (a) covid-19, (b) flu and (c) other respiratory infections on people with (i) cystic fibrosis and (ii) other long-term lung conditions in Northern Ireland in winter 2023.
The Department is only responsible for these matters in England as health is a devolved matter. We have therefore had no such discussions with the relevant departments in Northern Ireland.
