answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/02/2021 answer text <p>We are aware of Amal Nakhleh's case. According to international law, administrative detention should be used only when imperative reasons of security makes it necessary, rather than as routine practice and as a preventive rather than a punitive measure. We continue to call on the Israeli authorities to comply with their obligations under international law and either charge or release detainees. We remain committed to working with Israel to secure improvements to the practices surrounding children in detention and regularly raise this with the Israeli Ministry of Justice. We also fund projects providing legal aid to assist children with legal representation and capacity building to local lawyers. Ultimately, a lasting peace agreement is needed which ensures that all those who are in need of medical attention have access to healthcare provisions.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 22/02/2021 15:59:56 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/02/2019 answer text <p>The National Health Service advises women of the importance of using some form of contraception during sex after giving birth, including the first time, if they do not wish to become pregnant. Women will usually have had a chance to discuss contraception before leaving hospital after birth, and again at their postnatal check at six-eight weeks. They can also talk about contraception with their general practitioner or health visitor, or go to a family planning or local contraception clinic, at any time, including whilst still pregnant.</p><p>National Institute for Health and Care Excellence guidance for postnatal care specifically recommends that methods and timing of resumption of contraception should be discussed within the first week of the birth. The coordinating healthcare professional should provide proactive assistance to women who may have difficulty accessing contraceptive care. This includes providing contact details for expert contraceptive advice.</p> answering member printed Baroness Blackwood of North Oxford question first answered 07/02/2019 14:02:44 answering member 4019 label Biography information for Baroness Blackwood of North Oxford
