The department operates, and has memorandum of terms of occupations (MOTO’s) with those building owners. As part of those agreements, those building owners employ and manage any third-party facilities management companies, so is therefore not the responsibility of the department. The department was recently onboarded to the Government Property Agency to manage the estate and the contracts between the department and those third-party companies. This responsibility would therefore sit with the Government Property Agency.</p> answering member constituency Rochford and Southend East answering member printed James Duddridge question first answered 21/01/2020 10:18:03 answering member 1559 label Biography information for Sir James Duddridge

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/01/2020 answer text <p>DExEU Ministers continue to hold regular discussions with the Department of Health and Social Care Ministers. The Government hugely values the contribution of EU staff to the NHS. We have taken steps to ensure that existing staff are able to remain working and living in the UK through the EU Settlement Scheme; and we will seek to ensure qualifications from the EU will continue to be recognised after we have exited the European Union.</p><p>Since the referendum, there are almost 7,300 more EU nationals working in NHS trusts and clinical commissioning groups.<sup><em>1 </em></sup>Furthermore, the Government has pledged to increase nurse numbers by 50,000 in the next five years, and give all nursing students on courses from September 2020 a payment of at least £5,000 which they will not need to pay back.</p><p>Recruitment for the NHS does not stop at the EU, we recruit talented individuals from all over the globe. The Government will launch a new visa to ensure qualified doctors, nurses and health professionals have fast-track entry to work in the United Kingdom. This will help ensure that there will be sufficient numbers of staff following the UK’s exit from the EU to enable the delivery of the high-quality services on which the public relies.</p><p>The Department for Health and Social Care continues to monitor and analyse staffing levels across the NHS and social care.</p><p> </p><p><em>1 </em>NHS Hospital and Community Health Service (HCHS) Workforce Statistics in England, NHS Digital, (Dec 2019).
