Lack of data and precarious funding for FGM services causing reduced focus
Conclusion
There is a notable lack of data on spending on FGM services but evidence to this Committee indicates that funding for FGM services may have reduced and remains precarious. There are also concerns that the integration of FGM services within the wider women’s health agenda has led to a reduced focus. (Conclusion, Paragraph 22)
