Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask His Majesty's Government whether the forthcoming NHS workforce strategy will include specific projections of workforce needs with respect to (1) health visiting, (2) school nursing, (3) sexual health services, and (4) drug and alcohol treatment.
The Government has commissioned NHS England to deliver a high-level National Health Service Long Term Workforce Plan (LTWP).
This plan is currently being developed and we have committed to publishing it this year.
