This is higher than in 2012, when 21% of boys and 16% of girls met the guidelines. However this excludes school-based activities and active travel. Further information can be found here: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/uk-physical-activity-guidelines" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/uk-physical-activity-guidelines</a>.</p><p> </p><p>As part of the government’s Sporting Future strategy, Sport England’s remit was extended to cover children from age 5+. Government departments including DCMS, DfE and DHSC have worked with Sport England to develop the new Active Lives: Children and Young People survey. This survey launched in schools in September 2017 and will measure in much more detail how children and young people engage in sport and physical activity, and how many are meeting the Chief Medical Officer's guidelines, both in and out of school. The first set of data will be available on 6 December.</p> answering member constituency Eastleigh answering member printed Mims Davies question first answered 30/11/2018 12:29:00 answering member 4513 label Biography information for Mims Davies

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 31/10/2018 answer text <p>The Office of the Secretary of State for Wales is not an employer in its own right. The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) provide employer services on our behalf. However, members of staff can apply for universal credit in a personal capacity and there are a number of different factors which determine whether or not an individual is eligible. MoJ has no central record from which to determine the number and proportion of its staff in receipt of universal credit and it is not therefore possible to make an estimate of numbers.</p> answering member constituency Eastleigh answering member printed Mims Davies question first answered 31/10/2018 15:04:24 answering member 4513 label Biography information for Mims Davies
