All forces have access to the National Hash Set Database which houses images seen and categorised by UK forces. We are developing a national capability for collecting, assessing and storing indecent images of children (IIOC) for law enforcement agencies. This capability will also be used to provide hash set data to the internet industry, to allow them to remove these appalling images from their networks. The child abuse image database (CAID) will be operational by the end of 2014.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning question first answered 27/10/2014 16:53:54 answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning previous answer version 24348 answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/10/2014 answer text <p>Data on the numbers of personnel treated at the Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre (DMRC) at Headley Court is only available from 2005 onwards.

This is because if an individual is treated in more than one year period, they are counted in each of those years, whereas they are counted only once in the total number of personnel. Further, where personnel have been treated for more than one injury, they have been counted only once.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The figures showing the number of appointments at DMRC prior to 1 September 2008 show the minimum number of people who were treated during that period.

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/10/2014 answer text <p>The Government believes that the country owes a particular debt of gratitude to those Service personnel who suffer life-changing injuries.<br><br>The Ministry of Defence therefore continues to improve the support that it offers to such personnel. In particular we now operate a Seriously Injured Leavers Protocol (SIL) which aims to ensure the identification of and ongoing support for, those Service leavers deemed likely to be medically discharged due to a severe physical or mental disablement.<br><br>This identification is based upon defined major disabling medical criteria, whilst the support is organised through the closer working of MOD in-Service and post Service welfare groups. The MOD’s Veterans Welfare Service proactively intervenes for 24 months and then maintains contact as required but at least yearly on the anniversary of discharge. Full details of the SIL protocol are available at the following website: http://www.veterans-uk.info/welfare/protocol_new.html</p> answering member constituency Broxtowe answering member printed Anna Soubry question first answered 27/10/2014 18:00:38 answering member 3938 label Biography information for Anna Soubry
