	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/03/2018 answer text <p>The Government has made clear to NHS England and to Parliament that for Referral to Treatment (RTT), the agreed standard is nothing less than the statutory standard. The Government remain committed to the accident and emergency (A&amp;E) waiting time standards. The November 2017 budget announced additional National Health Service revenue funding of £1.6 billion for 2018/19, part of which will be used by the NHS to treat a quarter of a million more patients in A&amp;E than the 23.5 million it expects to treat this financial year, and at the same time improve A&amp;E performance.</p><p> </p><p>The 2018-19 Government mandate to NHS England continues the multi-year approach to the mandate established since 2016-17 where we have carried forward the same overarching objectives to 2020 with only one significant change (the role of NHS England to support the Government to make a success of European Union Exit in regards to health and care). 2020 goals and annual deliverables from 2017-18 are also being carried forward with only essential changes. This is to provide continued stability for NHS England and the wider NHS to focus on improving performance on core patient access standards whilst maintaining progress on key commitments in the NHS’s plan, the Five Year Forward View.</p><p> </p><p>The decision to roll forward the mandate, alongside providing an additional £2.8 billion for the NHS between 2017-18 and 2019-20, reflects the Government’s commitment to supporting the NHS to deliver essential improvements in elective care 18-week RTT and A&amp;E waiting times.</p> answering member constituency North East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Stephen Barclay question first answered 28/03/2018 10:10:50 answering member 4095 label Biography information for Steve Barclay previous answer version 50227 answering member constituency North East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Stephen Barclay answering member 4095 label Biography information for Steve Barclay

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/03/2018 answer text <p>No compensation will be paid to Govia Thameslink Railway (GTR). Some of the money will be used to pay for additional costs incurred by GTR as a result of the disruption to passengers, for example bus replacement services – according to usual industry processes. For other franchises, some compensation would normally be paid to franchisees to reflect the loss of revenue resulting from the engineering work impact. Again this is part of standard industry practice. For the Thameslink, Southern and Great Northern (TSGN) franchise, as the Department for Transport takes revenue risk, this compensation will not be paid to GTR.</p> answering member constituency Orpington answering member printed Joseph Johnson question first answered 28/03/2018 14:41:25 answering member 4039 label Biography information for Lord Johnson of Marylebone previous answer version 49836 answering member constituency Orpington answering member printed Joseph Johnson answering member 4039 label Biography information for Lord Johnson of Marylebone
