Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
What steps the Government is taking to improve child health outcomes.
This question was answered on 8th May 2018
The Government wants children and young people to get the best start in life, and recognises the lasting impact this has on their health outcomes. We take a `life course’ approach which includes early years support so that children are ready to learn.
We have ambitious plans to reduce infant mortality and childhood obesity, improve children and young people’s mental health, and deliver a world-leading immunisation programme.
