Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what the potential cost to the public purse was of spending on FeNo machines in the NHS in the last 12 months.

As part of the Respiratory Solutions Framework, NHS Supply Chain supplies fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) devices and related consumables. The spend for the past 12 months is as follows:

• £127,903.00 for FeNO devices, some of which come with starter consumables; and
• £483,210.00 for FeNO consumables.

Please note that these figures are for spend by NHS Supply Chain, and do not include spending for the whole National Health Service.
