Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, with which health charities has his Department engaged on the development of the NHS 10 Year Workforce Plan.

In the coming weeks, we will launch the formal engagement phase of the upcoming workforce plan, which will provide stakeholders with the opportunity to contribute directly to the plan’s development. The Government wants to hear from anyone with relevant evidence, including trade unions, royal colleges, employers, charities, and those with expertise by experience.
