The White Paper sets out the Government’s long-term vision for the future of public health in England.

To read the full White Paper and the consultation questions relating to it, please visit the Department of Health website. Also on their web pages are a summary of evidence in support of this, and a Review of public health professional regulation by Dr Gabriel Scally, Regional Director of Public Health for the South West.

There are two further consultations in association to the White Paper and these are:

• Consultation on the funding and commissioning routes for public health (Department of Health website)
• Transparency in outcomes - proposals for a public health outcomes framework (department of Health website).
