Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Neil O'Brien and Margaret Ferrier

Tuesday 6th December 2022 Commons Chamber

[Neil O’Brien]

I have already talked about some of the things we are doing to crack on with improving public health and narrowing inequalities, but I will add some more. We are driving up blood donations from shortage groups and vaccine uptake in areas with the lowest uptake. I mentioned the extra £900 million for drug treatment, taking the total to £3 billion over three years. I will not repeat all the things I mentioned but, across the board, we are working at pace to improve public health and narrow health inequalities.
