answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/12/2018 answer text <p>The adopter approval process is free for prospective adopters so that they are not charged by adoption agencies for their preparation and assessment. However, the adoption agency must obtain a written report from a registered medical practitioner about the health of the prospective adopter following a full examination. There is often a charge payable to a GP for completion of this report that an adoption agency can cover should it choose.</p><p>The Department of Health and Social Care currently has no plans to make changes to the fees that GPs charge prospective adopters for medical checks. Any changes to the charges by GPs would need to be negotiated between NHS England and the General Practitioner Committee of the British Medical Association as part of the annual contract negotiations.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi grouped question UIN 195024 question first answered 03/12/2018 16:39:58 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/12/2018 answer text <p>The Government is undertaking a wide range of analysis in support of our EU exit negotiations and preparations. Ministers have a specific responsibility, which Parliament has endorsed, not to release information that would reveal our negotiating position.</p><p>However, we know that as of the end of May 2018, the UK had the second highest number of project participations in Horizon 2020. This was 14.4% of the total share of funding, second only to Germany. This demonstrates that it is in the interests of the UK and EU for us to continue to collaborate on research and innovation. It also signals assurance from both sides that although we are leaving the EU, we are not leaving Europe.</p><p>We have now agreed in principle the terms of the UK’s smooth and orderly exit from the EU as set out in the Withdrawal Agreement. Once ratified, the provisions in the Withdrawal Agreement will ensure UK participation in EU Programmes committed under the 2014-2020 Multi-annual Financial Framework until the closure of the programme or activity. Horizon 2020 is an EU Programme committed under the 2014-2020 MFF.</p><p>The Outline Political Declaration signifies an important milestone which explicitly provides for inclusion of terms for UK participation in EU Programmes, such as science and innovation. The UK Government has made it clear to our European neighbours that we want the option to associate to excellence-based EU research &amp; innovation funding programmes, networks and infrastructures.</p> answering member constituency Watford answering member printed Richard Harrington question first answered 03/12/2018 13:53:16 answering member 4068 label Biography information for Lord Harrington of Watford
