answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/03/2020 answer text <p>Access to general practitioner (GP) appointments is key to good vaccination uptake and coverage. The NHS Long Term Plan published in January 2019 committed to improve access to primary care through a range of initiatives including more healthcare staff working in and with GP practices where many patients receive their vaccinations. As part of this work, there has been a national review of access to general practice services that commenced in July 2019 and will complete in 2020, which has already informed contract discussions for 2020/21. The results of these discussions were published in February 2020 as part of the updated GP contract deal for 2020/21 which can be found at the following link:</p><p><a href="https://www.england.nhs.uk/gp/investment/gp-contract/" target="_blank">https://www.england.nhs.uk/gp/investment/gp-contract/</a></p><p>One of these actions relates to developing a nationally consistent extended access offer reflecting what works best in existing local schemes.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p> </p> answering member constituency Bury St Edmunds answering member printed Jo Churchill question first answered 12/03/2020 16:11:34 answering member 4380 label Biography information for Jo Churchill

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/03/2020 answer text <p>Public Health England (PHE) monitors trends in the level of childhood vaccination rates.</p><p>Although vaccination rates remain high, England has seen a small decline in coverage since 2013. The most recent figures, published in December 2019, show that vaccine coverage increased slightly compared to the last quarter for most routine vaccines measured at 12 months, representing vaccines administered recently. This increase in vaccination rates is for the second quarter in a row, and although it is always difficult to draw conclusions from small variations in the quarterly data, we look forward to this trend continuing in future reports.</p><p>This data can be viewed at the following link:</p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/cover-of-vaccination-evaluated-rapidly-cover-programme-2019-to-2020-quarterly-data" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/cover-of-vaccination-evaluated-rapidly-cover-programme-2019-to-2020-quarterly-data</a></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Bury St Edmunds answering member printed Jo Churchill question first answered 12/03/2020 14:51:31 answering member 4380 label Biography information for Jo Churchill
