Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, when the findings of the review into the HIV Prevention Innovation Fund will be published; and whether future funding will be agreed to support innovations such as making PrEP available in other NHS settings.
The findings of the review will be published before the end of the year. We have invested £33 million to deploy pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in sexual health services in the last two years and it is now commissioned as a routine service through the Public Health Grant. We are considering how equity and access to PrEP can be improved, including the role of community and other alternative settings.
