Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what measures her Department is putting in place to ensure that eligible women who do not use the NHS App or online accounts can easily request, receive and return the free HPV self-testing kits.

I refer the Hon Member to the press release issued by NHS England setting out the objectives of the self-testing rollout, and to the impact assessments carried out to inform the development of this policy, all of which are available at the following links:
