Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment he has made of the (a) technology capability and (b) workforce expertise in each of the genomic laboratory hubs; and if he will publish that assessment.
The information requested is not currently available. However, data is being collated across the National Health Service Genomic Laboratory Hubs to assess the capability and expertise of the workforce. We do not have a confirmed completion date for the data collection at this stage.
