Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment she has made of the potential impact of the ongoing restructuring of Integrated Care Boards on commissioned pathways for the early detection of liver disease.

The specific data requested by the Hon Member is not centrally held, but he may find useful data on the prevalence and treatment of liver disease at local level via the Department’s Fingertips website at the following link:

On the broader issues raised, I refer the Hon Member to the answer provided on 18 September in response to Question 27776.
