That is why we have committed £10 billion of additional funding for the NHS at the Budget and since. This includes making available over £4 billion for a new pay deal for the 1.2 million NHS staff on the Agenda for Change contract, in return for wider reform.</p><p> </p><p>In terms of next steps – as the Prime Minister set out recently at the Liaison Committee, we will come forward this year with a long-term plan for the NHS, and provide a new multi-year funding settlement in support of this plan – consistent with our fiscal rules and balanced approach – ahead of the next Spending Review.</p> answering member constituency South West Norfolk answering member printed Elizabeth Truss question first answered 16/04/2018 13:33:37 answering member 4097 label Biography information for Elizabeth Truss

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/04/2018 answer text <p>The Secretary of State for International Development has not recently held any discussions with her Israeli counterparts on economic revitalisation in Gaza. The UK remains gravely concerned about the humanitarian and economic situation in Gaza. In August 2017, Minister Burt met with Israeli officials to discuss various issues including the dire need to improve the humanitarian and economic situation in Gaza. We welcome all practical steps to improve conditions as a matter of urgency. HMG officials regularly discuss economic revitalisation in Gaza with their Israeli and Palestinian counterparts. For example, on 13 March, senior HMG officials attended a United States hosted conference on the humanitarian and economic situation in Gaza alongside representatives from 20 countries, including Israel.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 16/04/2018 14:37:12 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/04/2018 answer text <p>The assessment for Personal Independence Payment (PIP) looks at an individual’s ability to carry out a series of key everyday activities which are fundamental to living an independent life. These activities include their ability to prepare, cook and eat food, dress and undress, make budgeting decisions, manage and monitor their health condition, engage with other people, and plan and follow journeys. The Certificate of Visual Impairment provides information on visual ability but is insufficient for a comprehensive assessment of the extent to which a claimant is capable of carrying out the various PIP activities independently.</p> answering member constituency Truro and Falmouth answering member printed Sarah Newton question first answered 16/04/2018 14:02:26 answering member 4071 label Biography information for Sarah Newton

tabling member constituency	West Lancashire
tabling member printed	Rosie Cooper
uin	133913
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/03/2018 answer text <p>The assessment for Personal Independence Payment (PIP) is not designed to capture someone’s condition. Instead it is designed to assess how a claimant’s condition affects their functional ability. The Department therefore encourages claimants to provide as much relevant evidence as necessary to support their claim. The Certificate of Visual Impairment forms part of this suite of evidence but on its own does not provide sufficient information for a comprehensive assessment of functional ability.</p><p>Further information on the assessment process and sources of evidence can be found in Part 1 of the PIP Assessment Guide: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/personal-independence-payment-assessment-guide-for-assessment-providers" target="_blank">Personal Independence Payment (PIP) assessment guide for assessment providers - GOV.UK</a></p> answering member constituency Truro and Falmouth answering member printed Sarah Newton question first answered 27/03/2018 10:58:29 answering member 4071 label Biography information for Sarah Newton
