	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/07/2019 answer text <p>As with all vaccines and medicines, the safety of the Measles, Mumps and Rubella (MMR) vaccine remains under continual review by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA). The MHRA uses all available sources of evidence in pharmacovigilance, including regular review of suspected adverse reactions submitted through the Yellow Card Scheme, data from clinical and epidemiological studies, the medical literature and information from pharmaceutical companies and other worldwide regulatory authorities. The MHRA’s processes and data analysis systems are regularly evaluated to ensure optimal performance in monitoring the safety of vaccines and medicines.</p><p>The balance of benefits and risks of MMR vaccine remains overwhelmingly favourable.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 25/07/2019 16:35:38 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/07/2019 answer text <p>Two Measles, Mumps and Rubella (MMR) vaccines are licensed for use in the United Kingdom: M-M-RVaxPro and Priorix. Both vaccines are on the National Health Service’s routine immunisation schedule. The quality, safety and efficacy of both M-M-RVaxPro and Priorix have been evaluated before they were given a Marketing Authorisation in Europe, and the Marketing Authorisation Holder for each vaccines is legally required to submit periodic safety update reports to the regulator, which are documents intended to provide an evaluation of the risk-benefit balance of a medicinal product at defined time points after its authorisation. The sites at which the products are manufactured are also required to undergo periodic inspections to ensure that they comply with Good Manufacturing Practices. Each batch of vaccines is tested by an official medicines control laboratory (OMCL). OMCL testing is independent of and in addition to the manufacturer’s testing. These procedures ensure that the MMR vaccines available in the UK are safe and efficacious and that the manufacturers/Marketing Authorisation holders are held accountable for their products.</p><p>A European Public Assessment Report (EPAR) for M-M-RVaxPro is available at the following link:</p><p><a href="https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/documents/scientific-discussion/m-m-rvaxpro-epar-scientific-discussion_en.pdf" target="_blank">https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/documents/scientific-discussion/m-m-rvaxpro-epar-scientific-discussion_en.pdf</a></p><p>Priorix was approved before public assessment reports were a requirement. The EPAR for M-M-RVaxPro contains a general summary of the manufacturing information that was provided during the assessment process; however, the specific details of the manufacturing process are confidential.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 25/07/2019 16:38:57 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price

	question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government whether the Care Quality Commission has published a specific inspection framework for Child and Adolescent Mental Health (CAMHS) Tier 4 inpatient services; what is the maximum time allowed between inspections of CAMHS inpatient services; and in what ways the views and experiences of child patients and their parents are elicited.
	tabling member printed	Baroness Jolly
	uin	HL17299
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/07/2019 answer text <p>Tier 4 inspections are covered as part of the child and adolescent mental health wards core service. The definition for this core service is as follows:</p><p>Child and adolescent mental health services may assess and treat children and young people as an inpatient in hospital. This may be when community-based services cannot meet their needs safely and effectively because of their level of risk and/or complexity and where they need 24-hour nursing and medical care.</p><p>If providers are registering with the CQC as a new provider, the CQC will normally aim to inspect within 12 months of registration. For services that are rated, providers will receive their initial rating at this inspection. The CQC use this initial rating to determine when next to inspect the service.</p><p>For both National Health Service trusts and independent providers, the following principles apply regarding re-inspection (for NHS trusts since June 2017 and for independent providers since April 2018):</p><p>- Inadequate – Normally within 12 months of publishing the last comprehensive inspection report;</p><p> </p><p>- Requires improvement - Normally within two years of publishing the last comprehensive inspection report;</p><p> </p><p>- Good - Normally within three and a half years of publishing the last comprehensive inspection report; and</p><p> </p><p>- Outstanding - Normally within five years of publishing the last comprehensive inspection report.</p><p> </p><p>These are maximum inspection intervals, therefore the CQC may inspect more frequently, particularly if there is a risk.</p><p>The CQC encourages people to share their experience to ensure it is acted upon, including through the national Tell Us About Your Care partner charities.</p><p>The CQC aim to speak to children and young people and their families/carers during the inspection (depending on their availability) and have specific inspection tools to enable this.</p><p>This information is published as part of the inspection framework for NHS acute hospitals.</p> answering member printed Baroness Blackwood of North Oxford question first answered 25/07/2019 16:46:46 answering member 4019 label Biography information for Baroness Blackwood of North Oxford

	uin	HL17300
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/07/2019 answer text <p>The Care Quality Commission (CQC) has provided the following response.</p><p>The dates each of the registered Child and Adolescent Mental Health Tier 4 inpatient services were last inspected are attached, due to the size of the data.</p><p>The CQC carry out either comprehensive or focused inspections. For National Health Service trusts, these inspections will usually be unannounced.</p><p>In a few instances, where there are very good reasons, the CQC may let a service know it is coming. For example, the CQC may contact a trust to make sure senior management are present to answer its questions.</p><p>To enable the CQC to observe normal practice in a service, it has introduced more unannounced inspections as part of its comprehensive inspection methodology.</p><p>Because the CQC requests information from providers beforehand, it will carry out the inspection within three months of the provider submitting its provider information request. However, the CQC will not announce the day on which it intends to inspect.</p> answering member printed Baroness Blackwood of North Oxford question first answered 25/07/2019 16:45:37 answering member 4019 label Biography information for Baroness Blackwood of North Oxford attachment 1 file name HL17300 table formatted.docx title CAMHS Tier 4 inpatient inspections
