To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what steps he has taken as a result of the UK’s endorsement of the Guttmacher-Lancet integrated definition of Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights in 2019.

The UK government fully endorses the Guttmacher-Lancet definition of sexual and reproductive health and rights and promote this in our international engagement. The UK works hard to support this comprehensive package of services through our long-term investments in family planning, safe abortion care, maternal and newborn health, HIV treatment and prevention, and our efforts to end female genital mutilation and child, early and forced marriage. Sexual and reproductive health and rights services - as defined by Guttmacher-Lancet - are a core pillar of our action to end preventable deaths of mothers, newborns and children by 2030, including through our bilateral health and SRHR programmes.
