Asked by: Sonia Kumar (Labour - Dudley) Tuesday 25th November 2025 Question to the Department of Health and Social Care: To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment his Department has made of the potential merits of developing a modern service framework for musculoskeletal conditions. Answered by Stephen Kinnock - Minister of State (Department of Health and Social Care) Over a third of people in England live with musculoskeletal conditions, a major cause of economic inactivity.
