answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/03/2023 answer text <p><ins class="ministerial"> <p><ins class="ministerial">NHS England manages the costs of the COVID-19 vaccine programme across each campaign, rather than on a vaccine-by-vaccine basis. This funding covers the direct cost of vaccinating as well as additional central programme costs. No marketing has been specifically directed at vaccinating under 18s in 2023 to protect against COVID-19. Other indirect costs are not specific to vaccinating under 18s; they are for the wider vaccination programme and support vaccinating under 18s only where relevant. The price that the Government has paid for any COVID-19 vaccine is commercially sensitive. Disclosure would breach the Government’s confidentiality obligations.</ins></p></ins><del class="ministerial">There is no specific budget allocated to NHS England for the treatment of individuals who may have been injured following an adverse reaction to a COVID-19 vaccine.
