Members: Correspondence
Asked by: Derek Thomas (Conservative - St Ives) Tuesday 7th May 2024 Question to the Department of Health and Social Care: To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if she will (a) respond to the letter of 21 February 2024 from Parliamentarians on Excess Deaths and (b) direct the other recipients to respond. Answered by Andrea Leadsom The Department has received the correspondence from the hon. Member and has provided a response in PO-1497930. |
Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome
Asked by: Derek Thomas (Conservative - St Ives) Wednesday 8th May 2024 Question to the Department of Health and Social Care: To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether her Department is taking steps to ensure that plans for Ehlers Danlos Syndrome in the Major Conditions Strategy include (a) musculoskeletal and (b) all other symptoms. Answered by Andrew Stephenson In the development of the Major Conditions Strategy, we are considering how we improve outcomes for people living with multiple conditions, which is increasingly common in this country. Aligning work across several groups of conditions, including musculoskeletal conditions, for this strategy will allow us to focus on where there are similarities in approach, and ensure care is better centred around the patient, maximising existing resources both within patient pathways and in integrating between pathways. |
Sewage: Waste Disposal
Asked by: Derek Thomas (Conservative - St Ives) Wednesday 8th May 2024 Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, if his Department will make an assessment of the potential merits of amending water undertakers' licences under the Environment Act 2021 to require those undertakers to accept septic tank waste (a) where there is market failure in the processing of that waste and (b) in other circumstances. Answered by Robbie Moore - Shadow Minister (Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) Defra does not have the power to amend water company licence conditions; Ofwat has this power under the Water Industry Act 1991.
In the Plan for Water, the Government has committed to review existing regulatory arrangements and explore funding and other support options for improving septic tank activities. We continue to consider options that mitigate the risks arising from private sewage discharges.
In January 2023, to ease the pressures on the septic tank waste disposal market in Cornwall, the Environment Agency issued a regulatory position statement to increase waste storage capacity. This means that tanks can temporarily store more sewage (up to 60 cubic metres) until South West Water has capacity to take it. |
National Insurance Contributions
Asked by: Derek Thomas (Conservative - St Ives) Tuesday 21st May 2024 Question to the HM Treasury: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what steps his Department is taking to publicise the online system for (a) checking the completeness of National Insurance records and (b) paying voluntary National Insurance contributions. Answered by Nigel Huddleston HMRC has been actively promoting the enhanced Check your State Pension forecast service on GOV.UK for customers since it launched on 29 April 2024. This included:

Draft Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Bill
Asked by: Derek Thomas (Conservative - St Ives) Wednesday 22nd May 2024 Question to the Home Office: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, when he plans to bring forward the Draft Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Bill. Answered by Tom Tugendhat The Government is committed to introducing this important piece of legislation to Parliament, as announced in the King’s Speech on 7 November. The Government launched a public consultation on the requirements within the Standard Tier, which closed on 18 March. We are currently reviewing the consultation findings to ensure that all feedback is fully considered and that the measures included in Martyn’s Law are proportionate, and that they do not place an undue burden on premises within scope. We will introduce the Bill as soon as parliamentary time allows, and I am happy to write to the Honourable Member and Parliament once the Bill is introduced. |
NHS Learning Support Fund
Asked by: Derek Thomas (Conservative - St Ives) Friday 24th May 2024 Question to the Department of Health and Social Care: To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, with reference to the guidance entitled NHS Financial Support for Health Students (Fourth Edition): NHS Learning Support Fund, published on 29 June 2020, how many regional incentive payments were made to eligible students in areas where there is a workforce shortage in each of the last four years; and whether these payments are still available.
