These trends have long been considered to provide a good indication of the broad state of our wildlife.</p><p> </p><p>In November last year, the Government published <em>Wild Bird Populations in England, 1970 to 2017</em>. Overall, this showed that the combined all-species index has changed little compared with around 45 years ago.

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/06/2019 answer text <p>Evidence suggests that life expectancy for people with sickle cell disease is improving. This is due to a number of factors including:</p><p>- Improved newborn screening coverage to enable earlier diagnosis;</p><p>- Use of the National Haemoglobinopathy Registry to monitor individuals’ health, treatment and their annual reviews;</p><p>- Access to specific diagnostics and medication, such as hydroxyurea; and</p><p>- A Commissioning for Quality and Innovation (CQUIN) incentive has been in place for the last two years to improve access to apheresis for individuals with sickle cell disease.</p><p>All these factors are reflected in the service specification quality indicators which providers are required to report against so that implementation can be monitored.</p><p>It is anticipated that NHS England’s new model for specialised haemoglobinopathy services will be in place by early 2020. The new model is designed to improve access to specialist advice and care for patients, irrespective of where they live. The equality impact assessment on the new service model indicates that it will advance the promotion of equality and support the further reduction of health inequalities. This will be through ensuring that patients with thalassemia and sickle cell conditions have equitable access to high quality specialist care and support within specialised commissioned centres irrespective of where in the country they live. These centres will promote best practice in service delivery.</p> answering member constituency South Ribble answering member printed Seema Kennedy question first answered 06/06/2019 13:13:01 answering member 4455 label Biography information for Seema Kennedy

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/06/2019 answer text <p>The NHS Long Term Plan is a 10-year strategy for the National Health Service. It sets out how the NHS will spend the £33.9 billion cash terms annual increase going into the NHS budget by 2023/24. Research on health and social care continues to be funded by the Government through the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR). The future of budgets outside of the NHS England resource settlement will be confirmed later this year at Spending Review 2019.</p><p>The NIHR welcomes funding applications for research into any aspect of human health, including chronic pancreatitis. As with other major research funders, the NIHR does not ring-fence funds for particular topics or conditions. Applications for funding are subject to peer review and judged in open competition, with awards being made on the basis of the importance of the topic to patients and health and care services, value for money and scientific quality.</p><p><br> The NIHR’s funding and support for research into chronic pancreatitis which is currently ongoing or recently concluded (in financial year 2018/19) includes one directly funded study, with a total award of £262,500, investigating the use of antioxidants and magnesium for the treatment of pain in hereditary and idiopathic chronic pancreatitis. In addition, there has been NIHR support for two studies through its early translational research infrastructure and five through the NIHR’s Clinical Research Network, which provides support for delivering research funded by the NIHR itself and other public, charity and industry research funders.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage question first answered 05/06/2019 16:26:33 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage
