Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what recent assessment he made of the adequacy of contraceptive funding required to meet need (a) nationally and (b) in Kingston upon Hull North constituency.

No recent assessment has been made. In 2021/22 the national Public Health Grant to local authorities in England is £3.234 billion. The Grant supports the delivery of their public health functions, including contraceptive services. It is for individual local authorities to determine how funding is spent to meet local population health needs.
