§ Ms PrimaroloTo ask the Secretary of State for Health is she will list the family planning initiatives taken by her Department in the last 10 years which are aimed at men.
§ Mr. SackvilleThe "Health of the Nation" strategy includes the clear objective for the national health service to ensure the provision of well-publicised and effective family planning services for those people who want them. That applies equally to men as to women.
The Department of Health funds a number of voluntary organisations which are working to ensure that the needs of men are addressed along with those of women.
