Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will commission an independent review of the Report of the Commission on Human Medicines’ Expert Working Group on Hormone Pregnancy Tests, published on 15 November 2017.

We are hugely sympathetic to the families who believe that they or their children have suffered following the use of hormone pregnancy tests. It is not currently the Government’s intention to review the Report of the Commission on Human Medicines; however we are committed to reviewing any new scientific evidence which may come to light.
