Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he is taking to ensure that the supply of covid-19 lateral flow tests is not disrupted for healthcare workers, school teachers and pupils and other key recipients.
The UK Health Security Agency has increased both the supply of tests and distribution capability. We have delivered approximately seven million tests a day through GOV.UK and 90 million tests a week in the United Kingdom through all delivery channels, including to educational settings.
