Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, when he plans to make a recommendation on a future Respiratory Syncytial Virus Immunisation Programme.

Policy options based on the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation’s advice on a potentially expanded vaccination programme for respiratory syncytial virus are currently being developed by the Department, working with the UK Health Security Agency and NHS England. The Government will then announce its plans once complete.
