Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will meet the Medical Defence Union to discuss NHS staff morale.

There are no plans for my Rt Hon. Friend, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, to meet with the Medical Defence Union to discuss National Health Service staff morale.

The Department works closely with NHS England to address issues around staff morale in the NHS and ensures staff are able to work in an inclusive, compassionate environment that supports their health and wellbeing.
