To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what support his Department (a) provided in the 2022-23 financial year and (b) will provide in the 2023-24 financial year for the healthcare system in Anguilla; and if he will make a statement.

The Department works with the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, the UK Health Security Agency and the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities to provide health system support to all Overseas Territories, including Anguilla. This includes practical and technical support to supply Covid-19 vaccines, therapeutics and antivirals, medical equipment, and support on workforce recruitment and retention.

The Department also administers the NHS Quota System which allows Anguilla to refer five patients for a free course of National Health Service treatment not available on island. The following table shows the number of Anguillan nationals referred through the NHS Quota System and have received specialised treatment in NHS facilities over the past five years.
