answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/09/2022 answer text <p>The Government has decided not to procure Evusheld for prevention through emergency routes at this time. This is a decision based on independent clinical advice by the multi-agency RAPID C-19 and a national expert policy working group, which considered a range of evidence, including clinical trial data, in vitro analysis and emerging observational studies. It concluded that there is currently insufficient evidence of benefit to recommend deployment at this time.  The Chief Medical Officer for England is content that the correct process for providing clinical advice has been followed and agrees that it should now be referred to the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence for further evaluation.</p><p> </p><p>The Department wrote to patient groups on 5 September 2022 with information on this decision and evidence considered. The Department intends to publish further details of the clinical advice received shortly.</p> answering member constituency Newark answering member printed Robert Jenrick question first answered 22/09/2022 13:56:17 answering member 4320 label Biography information for Robert Jenrick

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/09/2022 answer text <p>Data on the Federated Data Platform (FDP) will be transferred from existing data sets, which have a lawful basis for collection and processing. Therefore, seeking the consent of individuals for the transfer of these datasets will not be required. NHS England is committed to transparency on the way data is used within the FDP to ensure that patients are informed of the choice to opt out, where applicable and how to do so. It is also committed to publishing information on who is accessing data and for what purpose.</p><p>Data protection law and the common law duty of confidentiality will continue to apply. There must always be a valid lawful basis for the collection and processing of personal information, with transparency about the use of data within federated data platforms, as defined under the applicable legislation. The FDP will be used as separate instances to provide access to data for both the primary use of data, such as direct patient care and the secondary use of data, such as its use in analysis and planning. This will be based on specific use cases which set out the data specification and data classification and access controls which will be used. Where confidential patient information is being used to support direct care within the FDP, explicit consent would not be required as this data has implied consent for use.</p> answering member constituency Newark answering member printed Robert Jenrick question first answered 22/09/2022 13:43:05 answering member 4320 label Biography information for Robert Jenrick

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/09/2022 answer text <p>In July 2019, a pilot project was launched to develop and test a ‘subscription-style’ evaluation and payment model for antibiotics in England, which would pay pharmaceutical companies for access to antibiotics based on its value to the National Health Service, rather than the volume used. This payment model aims to incentivise pharmaceutical companies to develop new antimicrobials, despite the potential for the use of newly developed antibiotics to be ‘held back’ to protect against the threat of antimicrobial resistance.</p><p>Payments from NHS England to the two pharmaceutical companies involved in the pilot commenced on 1 July 2022. Officials are now considering how to develop the new frameworks for the evaluation and payment of new antimicrobials, including through consultation with domestic and international stakeholders. The consultation process will continue until spring 2023.</p><p>In June 2022, the previous Secretary of State for Health and Social Care (the Rt hon. Steve Barclay MP) invited health ministers in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland to engage in this process and assist in the evolution of this model. The devolved administrations have agreed in principle and officials in the United Kingdom will finalise the details of each nation’s participation. It will be for each devolved administration to decide if or how any agreed frameworks are implemented in their health system.</p><p>To support the adoption of similar models in other countries, findings from the pilot project have been published online and shared at international conferences. The Government has also advocated for such models internationally, such as during the UK’s 2021 G7 Presidency, where health and finance ministers have committed to explore options to bring new antimicrobials to market.</p> answering member constituency Newark answering member printed Robert Jenrick grouped question UIN 48426 question first answered 22/09/2022 15:19:10 answering member 4320 label Biography information for Robert Jenrick
