uin	HL8602
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/06/2018 answer text <p>Human papillomavirus (HPV) triage testing is performed in the screening programme on specimens collected from women attending for cervical screening which show borderline or low grade abnormalities. If this test identifies a high-risk HPV infection then the woman will be referred to colposcopy. No further HPV testing is conducted in colposcopy on these specimens to identity the specific HPV types. It is not the role of colposcopy to test HPV infections.</p><p>However, Public Health England does carry out surveillance which has demonstrated a reduction in the HPV types included in the vaccines since the introduction of the national vaccination programme.</p> answering member printed Lord O'Shaughnessy question first answered 27/06/2018 14:12:15 answering member 4545 label Biography information for Lord O'Shaughnessy

question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what action they are taking to ensure that the cohort of women who have received human papilloma virus vaccinations are aware that they should still attend cervical smear test appointments.
tabling member printed	The Countess of Mar
uin	HL8605
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/06/2018 answer text <p>The human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination programme states in patient communications that cervical screening (smear tests) will continue to be important whether women have had the HPV vaccine or not. Women aged 25 to 64 who are registered with a general practitioner are automatically invited for cervical screening. This includes women who have had the HPV vaccination as the vaccine does not guarantee completed protection of against all high risk strains of HPV. The importance of cervical screening is also reiterated online on NHS Choices.</p> answering member printed Lord O'Shaughnessy question first answered 27/06/2018 14:12:00 answering member 4545 label Biography information for Lord O'Shaughnessy

Due to these and other factors influencing food choice, it is difficult to assess the direct effect of single measures such as the 5 A Day campaign.</p> answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine question first answered 21/06/2018 16:03:05 answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine
