The Royal College of Gynecologists and Obstetricians (RCOG) has responded to the new health minister Thérèse Coffey's decision to not publish a paper on health inequalities, as reported by the Guardian.
'We are extremely worried to hear that the UK Government is considering turning its back on this commitment to tackle unacceptable health inequalities through the promised White Paper. This decision, if taken, will completely undermine the commitment to tackling disparities in the Women's Health Strategy for England,' Dr Eddie Morris, president of the RCOG, said in a statement.
