Asked by: Lord Pickles (Conservative - Life peer)
Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Merron on 27 November 2025 (HL12257), which specific organisations advocating for immunosuppressed individuals they have engaged with, and continue to engage with, throughout phase four of Exercise Pegasus.
Answered by Baroness Merron - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department of Health and Social Care)
As part of the Government’s external engagement for Exercise PEGASUS, views from organisations advocating for immunosuppressed individuals were gathered through a series of focus groups. These groups also included a range of organisations representing disabled people, clinically vulnerable groups, and wider equality focused bodies. Given participants’ contributions directly inform the assessment of the exercise, the Government has agreed to keep the identities of these organisations anonymous.
