Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, with reference to the Government's policy paper entitled Towards Zero - An action plan towards ending HIV transmission, AIDS and HIV-related deaths in England - 2022 to 2025, whether there is a date by which sexual health services must be delivering a 90% HIV testing offer rate to first time attendees.
The UK Health Security Agency will publish a monitoring and evaluation framework in 2022. This will provide key indicators and timeframes to monitor the implementation of the HIV Action Plan, including the commitment to achieve a 90% HIV testing offer rate to first time attendees at sexual health services.
