answer text <p>The publication of such communications is ultimately a decision for Mandatory Provident Fund (MPF) trustees, who are regulated by the MPF Authority in Hong Kong. The Government firmly opposes the MPF’s discrimination against British National (Overseas) status holders (BN(O)s) and we will continue to urge the Hong Kong authorities and all relevant bodies to facilitate early drawdown of funds for BN(O)s as is the case for other Hong Kong residents who move overseas permanently. The conduct of UK banking institutions is not a matter for the Home Office, but I have asked my officials to raise this matter with HM Treasury.</p> more like this

answer text <p>On 10 January 2024, the Department announced a package of social care workforce reforms, to help recruit and retain talent by providing new, accredited qualifications, digital training and funded apprenticeships. These plans include the launch of the care workforce pathway, which will provide, for the first time ever, a national career structure for the adult social care workforce, covering the breadth and complexity of care.</p><p>In addition, the latest phase of the Made with Care recruitment campaign launched at the start of October 2023, and is running until the end of March 2024. It consists of advertising appearing on catch-up television, social media, radio and online, to highlight the amazing work that staff across the adult social care sector do and motivating suitable candidates to apply.</p> more like this

answer text <p>Reducing waiting times for treatments of all types of cancer is a priority for the Government, as is increasing early cancer diagnosis as this is a key contributor to reducing cancer health inequalities. We are expanding capacity through our community diagnostic centres (CDCs) supported by £2.3 billion of capital funding with 150 CDCs currently operational and having delivered over six million additional tests, checks and scans including vital cancer checks since January 2021.</p><p>The planned Major Conditions Strategy will look at the early diagnosis and treatment of cancer and will consider a wide range of interventions and enablers to improve outcomes and experience for a range of cancer patients, including those less survivable cancers.</p><p>NHS England has commissioned six cancer clinical audits which will provide timely evidence for cancer service providers of where patterns of care in England may vary, increase the consistency of access to treatments and help stimulate improvements in cancer treatments and outcomes for patients, including ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, kidney cancer and primary and metastatic breast cancer. The Royal College of Surgeons began work on this audit in October 2022, and the first outcomes expected in September 2024.</p>

Unless otherwise stated, figures include trained and untrained personnel.</li><li>Due to the lack of data available for the 1 Jan 2000 strengths, the strengths were estimated via linear interpolation between the known strengths as at 1 Apr 1999 and 1 Apr 2000. Essentially we assume the strengths change linearly from 1 Apr 1999 to 1 Apr 2000, to estimate the strength as at 1 Jan 2000. As such the averages calculated for the year 2000 include an estimated figure, making the calculated average an estimate.</li><li>UK Regular Forces strength figures used in the Average Strength calculations in the period 1 Apr 1999 - 1 Jan 2007 (apart from the 1 Jan 2000 strength discussed in caveat 3) were taken from historic &quot;UK Armed Forces Quarterly Press Releases&quot; which can be accessed here: <a href="https://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ukgwa/20140116145335/http:/www.dasa.mod.uk/index.php/publications/personnel/military/quarterly-personnel-report" target="_blank">https://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ukgwa/20140116145335/http://www.dasa.mod.uk/index.php/publications/personnel/military/quarterly-personnel-report</a></li><li>UK Regular Forces strength figures used in the Average Strength calculations in the period 1 Apr 1999 – 1 Oct 2023 were taken from the Joint Personnel Administration system (JPA).</li><li>The Average Strength in the year 2000 has been rounded to the nearest 100 to reflect the fact that an estimate was used in the calculations (see caveat 3).</li><li>Figures from the years 2001 - 2007 have been rounded to the nearest 100. This is due to rounded figures being used to calculate the Average Strengths.</li><li>Figures from the year 2008 onwards have been rounded to the nearest 10 in line with disclosure control policy. Figures ending in 5 are rounded to the nearest 20 to avoid systematic bias.</li></ol><p> </p>
