Question:
To ask the Minister of Health to outline the timescale under which he will assess the responses to the consultation on Reshaping Breast Assessment Services.

Answer:

The public consultation on ‘Reshaping Breast Assessment Services’ closed on 30 August 2019, with 4,630 written responses received.

My officials have now completed the consultation analysis. I will make an announcement on the future of breast assessment services once I have had the opportunity to fully consider the responses and the best way forward for stabilising and improving these services.
