Coronavirus: Screening

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how long his Department plans to continue to provide free lateral flow covid-19 tests to the general public via post and community distribution sites.

From 1 April 2022, free access to lateral flow device tests in England will end, from both GOV.UK and pharmacies. From April, we expect that a private market will develop, allowing people who wish to continue testing to do so.
