	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/03/2024 answer text <p>We currently invest more than £3 billion in National Health Service dental services each year. We are committed to protecting this funding for dentistry purposes and we will ringfence this funding in 2024 to 2025. We will issue guidance to integrated care boards (ICBs) shortly through NHS England’s 2024 to 2025 revenue finance and contracting guidance. To ensure compliance against this requirement, and to strengthen oversight of funding that is used to deliver access to NHS dental care, NHS England will meet with and collect monthly returns from all ICBs to establish current and planned spend against the ringfenced dental allocations budget.</p> answering member constituency South Northamptonshire answering member printed Andrea Leadsom question first answered 27/03/2024 16:39:41 answering member 4117 label Biography information for Andrea Leadsom previous answer version 21242 answering member constituency South Northamptonshire answering member printed Andrea Leadsom answering member 4117 label Biography information for Andrea Leadsom

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/06/2021 answer text <p>The UK is most concerned at the unacceptable steps being taken by the Nicaraguan authorities to prevent opposition candidates and activists from taking part in November's presidential elections. The arrests and harassment of opposition figures represent further anti-democratic developments in Nicaragua at the behest of President Daniel Ortega. They violate the guarantees in Nicaragua's constitution, and further deprive the people of Nicaragua of the right to choose their own political leaders and parliamentary representatives freely.</p><p>Since the Nicaraguan authorities' lethal clampdown of protests in 2018, the UK has regularly voiced its concern over the country's deteriorating human rights and democratic situation. On 4 June, the UK issued a statement condemning the arrest and disqualification of potential presidential candidate, Cristiana Chamorro, alongside other international partners. On 15 June, as a Permanent Observer to the Organisation of American States, the UK voiced its support for the OAS' resolution condemning the arrests, and called for free and fair elections. We will continue to call on the authorities in Nicaragua to support the necessary steps for upholding the rights of all Nicaraguan voters in exercising their right to vote freely, safely, and without interference; to ensure that all political parties, their chosen candidates, and supporters can campaign freely and safely in advance of this year's elections; and to ensure that journalists and the media are allowed to operate impartially, and without restriction.</p> answering member constituency Aldridge-Brownhills answering member printed Wendy Morton question first answered 21/06/2021 09:58:02 answering member 4358 label Biography information for Wendy Morton
