Ms. Ruddock

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what plans he has to increase the uptake of the mumps, measles and rubella vaccine amongst ethnic minority groups.

Mr. Freeman

Leaflets in several ethnic languages were produced jointly by the Health Education Authority (HEA) and the Department of Health as part of the programme to launch MMR immunisation last October, and discussions between the HEA and the Department on future activity will include the need for information aimed at ethnic minority groups.
