star this property answer text <p>It is the responsibility of individual ministers to decide what answers they give to Questions for Written Answer (QWAs), and they are of course accountable to the House for those answers. That direct accountability is important: that is why Ministers in this House must provide personally signed answers to members. The Ministerial Code states that <em>“It is of paramount importance that Ministers give accurate and truthful information to Parliament”.<br><br></em>As Leader of the House I have a particular responsibility to encourage Ministers and their departments to be punctual in answering written questions. My office immediately approach departments who have not responded to questions after 10 working days, and remain in contact with them until the questions are answered. At the end of this Session I will publish data on the annual performance of departments on their promptness in dealing with QWAs.</p><p> </p> more like this

star this property answer text <p>The National Housing Federation voluntary agreement states that housing associations and the Government share a mutual objective to ensure that replacement homes are delivered as quickly as possible.</p><p>Whilst aiming for replacement within two years, the default position is that housing associations will have flexibility to replace homes within a three year period. The Housing and Planning Bill will also seek to introduce clauses that will speed up the planning system so that new homes can be delivered quicker.</p><p>Under the agreement, housing associations may exercise discretion not to sell properties provided through supported housing as defined by Part V of the Housing Act 1985.</p> more like this

star this property answer text <p>Clinical commissioning groups (CCGs) are responsible for commissioning many healthcare services to meet the needs and requirements of their local population, including those for people with myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). In doing so, CCGs will commission services that reflect the needs of local people and that support improvements in health and healthcare outcomes.</p><p> </p><p>The current National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidance on ME/CFS does not recommend routine autoimmune or metabolic testing but advises that diagnosis should be made after all other possible diagnoses have been excluded. Shared decision making should take place during diagnosis and all phases of care between the person with ME/CFS and healthcare professionals.</p><p> </p><p>On 20 September 2017, NICE announced plans to undertake a full review of the guidance.</p> more like this
