Question:
To ask the Minister of Health whether he will ensure that GPs and other healthcare professionals will have adequate training around the symptoms and diagnosis of endometriosis as part of the Women's Health Action Plan.

Answer:

Clinical education on endometriosis for healthcare professionals is part of the work of the clinical pathway group taking forward implementation of Gynae GIRFT, being led by SPPG.
