To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, for what reason (a) Valproate redress and (b) interim payments are delayed.
Ashley Dalton
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary for Health and Social Care
The Government is carefully considering the valuable work done by the Patient Safety Commissioner and the resulting Hughes Report, which set out options for redress for those harmed by valproate and pelvic mesh. This is a complex area of work, involving several Government departments. We will be providing an update to the Patient Safety Commissioner’s report at the earliest opportunity.
