Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, in what month this year he expects the Urgent and Emergency Care Improvement Plan to be published.
The urgent and emergency care improvement plan will set expectations for the National Health Service in England to deliver improvements in urgent and emergency care services and set the foundations for future areas of reform, in line with the 2025/26 NHS Operational Planning Guidance. It is anticipated that the plan will be published as part of the current NHS planning round.
