To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps his Department is taking to ensure covid-19 test capacity matches local demand.
Helen Whately
Minister of State (Department of Health and Social Care)
The Department uses local data and intelligence to establish demand and based on this information offers capacity through its delivery channels of home testing, mobile testing and walk-through and drive-through testing to support the requirement of the area. The Department is continuing to work to boost capacity which has now increased to over 500,000 tests a day.
