Public Health England guidance, developed with drug service providers, promotes the need for local authorities, commissioners and healthcare providers to work together to create systems and pathways that enable people who use drugs, including those who experience homelessness, to access services.</p> answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine question first answered 13/12/2017 14:07:33 answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine
