Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps are been taken to improve (a) access to and (b) the affordability of assessments for dyslexia.

We are currently reviewing the provision of Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) services, including those for dyslexia. The review is considering measures to make sure the SEND system is consistent, high quality and integrated across education, health and care and will look at how needs can be identified as early as possible.
