tabling member printed	John McNally
uin	59855
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/10/2022 answer text <p>The Government has no plans to introduce a tax unregistered pension scheme for the National Health Service. The majority of NHS Pension Scheme members can build their pensions tax-free and an unregistered arrangement would remove this tax relief on contributions and a tax-free lump sum of up to 25% of the value of their pension on retirement. The Government has asked NHS England to work with NHS organisations to introduce schemes to allow recycling of employer pension contributions to high earners who opt out of the NHS Pension scheme due to the impact of pension tax.</p> answering member constituency Newark answering member printed Robert Jenrick question first answered 13/10/2022 14:04:50 answering member 4320 label Biography information for Robert Jenrick

uin	55023
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/10/2022 answer text <p>The UK Health Security Agency began testing of Evusheld in March 2022, which was completed in May 2022. The decision not to procure Evusheld at this time for prevention through emergency routes is based on independent clinical advice by the multi-agency RAPID C-19 and a national expert policy working group. The decision is based on a range of evidence, including clinical trial data, in vitro analysis and emerging observational studies. RAPID C-19 monitors activity in clinical trials for emerging evidence and where treatments are proven to be clinically effective, enables access for National Health Service patients. The Chief Medical Officer for England is content that the correct process for providing clinical advice has been followed and it should now be referred to the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence for further evaluation. The Antivirals and Therapeutics Taskforce has published this analysis of evidence, which is available at the following link:</p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/rapid-c-19-oversight-group-report-to-chief-medical-officer-review-of-evusheld" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/rapid-c-19-oversight-group-report-to-chief-medical-officer-review-of-evusheld</a></p><p>A letter was issued to patient groups on 5 September on the evidence and expert analysis for the decision, which is available at the following link:</p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/decision-on-evusheld-as-a-coronavirus-covid-19-treatment-letter-to-patient-groups" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/decision-on-evusheld-as-a-coronavirus-covid-19-treatment-letter-to-patient-groups</a></p> answering member constituency Newark answering member printed Robert Jenrick question first answered 13/10/2022 13:30:51 answering member 4320 label Biography information for Robert Jenrick
