Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what discussions he has had with ambulance trusts on ensuring that new build residential properties appear on the navigation software used by ambulance crews.
No such discussions have taken place.
All ambulance services use Ordnance Survey (OS) maps for their mapping and address systems. OS maps are updated with new addresses as they are registered and made available to ambulance services for download every six weeks.
