Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether there will be a consultation on changes to the methodology used by the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation that result either from the report commissioned by the Department of Health on the Cost-Effectiveness Methodology for Immunisation Programmes and Procurement or from the work of the Department of Health’s Appraisal Alignment Working Group.

The Department will be publishing the Cost Effectiveness Methodology for Immunisation Programmes and Procurements report in due course. The timetable has not yet been confirmed.

A decision on consultation has not yet been made.
