Recommendation 8
8
Paragraph: 43
Review and support national rollout of innovative schemes promoting condom use for high-risk groups.
Recommendation
Condomless sex is a key risk factor for STI acquisition, and changes in condom use have been widely reported. The Government must increase its promotion of the benefits of condom use, using a tailored approach to those groups at greatest risk of STI infection. There are innovative approaches being used to promote uptake in condom use such as the inclusion of condoms with STI testing kits. The Government should review the effectiveness of these schemes and consider the merits of supporting their rollout nationally.
