Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask His Majesty's Government whether they plan to monitor the implementation of the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, British Thoracic Society and Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network asthma guidelines, published in November 2024, and if so, whether they plan to make the data publicly available.

The Healthcare Quality Improvement Partnership (HQIP), on behalf of NHS England, commissions a national audit across respiratory care, which includes asthma. All data from the audit is published and available at the HQIP’s website, in an online only format.

The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), the British Thoracic Society (BTS), and the Scottish Intercollegiate Guideline Network (SIGN) published a new collaborative guideline for asthma in November 2024. The NICE is working with the BTS, the SIGN, NHS England, and others to review the resources available to support implementation of the guideline, and plans to publish a respiratory toolkit.
