Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what progress has been made with the roll out of the Royal College of General Practitioners' veteran friendly GP surgeries accreditation across England; and what steps his Department is taking to support that.

Of 6,701 practices which are open to apply, 1,189 are currently accredited. The accreditation scheme is being widened intended to ensure that every Primary Care Network has an accredited practice in 2023.
