However, where it is possible to maintain social distancing throughout the visit, a second additional visitor can be permitted in certain circumstances including those individuals receiving end-of-life care.</p><p>The maternity visiting guidance has been published by NHS England and NHS Improvement. It has been designed to assist NHS trusts to reintroduce access for partners, visitors and other supporters of pregnant women in English maternity services.

This was to support Directors of Public Health and local authorities’ operational needs while more detailed data sharing was being put in place.

As the information contained is personally identifiable, we do need a specific data sharing agreement in place with a specific named individual.

They are granted access once they have returned the data sharing agreement<em>.</em></p><p> </p> answering member constituency Mid Bedfordshire answering member printed Ms Nadine Dorries question first answered 15/08/2020 14:05:06 answering member 1481 label Biography information for Ms Nadine Dorries previous answer version 37935 answering member constituency Mid Bedfordshire answering member printed Ms Nadine Dorries answering member 1481 label Biography information for Ms Nadine Dorries
