Written Answers
Parkinson's Disease: Health Services
Asked by: Simon Lightwood (Labour (Co-op) - Wakefield)
Monday 20th May 2024

Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what recent assessment she has made of the adequacy of numbers of Parkinson's specialist staff in (a) West Yorkshire integrated care board area and (b) England.

Answered by Andrew Stephenson - Minister of State (Department of Health and Social Care)

As of June 2023, there were 5.8 full-time equivalent (FTE) Parkinson’s Consultants working in the West Yorkshire Association of Acute Trusts. There were 10.49 FTE Parkinson’s Clinical Nurse Specialists. This only includes those working in acute hospital services.

While the Department does not hold data specifically on the number of Parkinson’s specialist staff in England, we do hold data on the numbers working in the wider speciality of neurology. As of January 2024, there are over 1,800 FTE doctors working in the specialty of neurology in National Health Service trusts and other organisations in England. This includes over 900 FTE consultant neurologists. In 2023, the fill rate for recruitment into the specialty of neurology in England was 94%.

Buses: Carbon Emissions
Asked by: Simon Lightwood (Labour (Co-op) - Wakefield)
Tuesday 21st May 2024

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 18 April 2024 to Question 21868 on Buses: Carbon Emissions, how many and what proportion of the buses allocated funding under the Zero Emission Bus Regional Areas scheme 1 (a) are on the road in each local transport authority and (b) (i) have been and (ii) will be manufactured in the UK.

Answered by Guy Opperman - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)

This Government has invested £410m into the Zero Emission Bus programmes since 2020, which has funded over 2,200 buses across England.

The Zero Emission Bus Regional Area (ZEBRA) 1 programme was launched in 2021 and awarded £270m funding to 16 local transport authorities (LTAs) in England (outside of London).

ZEBs produced and sold in the UK are supported by a global supply chain; the below table outlines bus manufacturer’s location. The numbers in this table are not official statistics: they are based on the latest information available and are therefore indicative and subject to change.
