Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what steps Public Health England is taking to measure the uptake of Green Book recommended immunisations among adult patients in clinical risk groups.

Data on patients within clinical ‘at risk’ groups are held on general practice (GP) systems, within the personal patient records. The same systems are used to record vaccinations when given. Public Health England uses GP data to monitor uptake for vaccines recommended for adults in accordance with the Green Book. These include periodic analyses of uptake among at risk groups.

Uptake reports are published weekly, monthly, quarterly or annually depending on the programme and can be found on:
